Extremely nice ... love the color tone contrast between the walnut and the gray white of the antler. May I ask, do you have a threaded rod with a screw going through the center of the bone to connect the two areas?

That's a lovely piece Mark. The relief carving of the Falcon is particularly good. The whole thing comes together well. What is the diameter of the stick at the joint?
