This is a short about the "hobby" my Great Grandfather started at 80 years old. He spent the next 10 years of his life creating one-of-a-kind works of art for family and friends.

I am so impressed by the hundreds of hours the artist had to have spent creating these magnificent peices! The detail is amazing--what perfect gifts to last for generations.

Thank you, Lynn. He also made jewelry, lamp bases, nut bowls, and pen holders. I would love to find more of the pieces someday. Sincerely, Gina
