A piece I'm working on

[Dave Hawksford]

This is the rosette for a setee I'm working on. It belonged to this man. I'm honored for the opportunity to restore it. It's not all there so I'm fashioning the missing pieces.
Charles Curtis: The First American Indian to be Vice President of the United States. When Charles Curtis was born in 1860, no one could have known that he was destined for a career in national politics. Nor that he would become the first with American Indian ancestry to hold the second highest office in the nation.

Wonderful job Dave. You are a wood wizard! I have said it many times, I saw you do a scratch removal at Larry's Gathering and it was pure magic as it in the blink of an eye disappeared in front of my eyes. I don't remember who was standing to my right, but we both looked at each other in amazement. This is a historically important piece of history and you will be forever linked to it. Congratulations on another victory!!!

I've been trying to pull providence from the owner Dave. Man do we have a lot in common. His wife's aunt was Curtis secretary for him and he gave it to her at the end of his term.

Simply amazing, Dave.

 

[Paul Douglass]

WOW!

 

[Darren Wright]

Very nice work Dave!

Customer picked it up and said I have much more for you.
