  • A very good, coherent piece with firm control of the overall shape, which is elegant and totally "Uzbeki" in its aesthetic. I admire the piece enormously - it is superbly done. I could also see myself as owning it, as I find it less "over the top" than some. Thanks so much for posting all these pieces. We are all much indebted to you for your trouble!
