For the non-Adventuresses

[carebear]

I posted this link in the "Adventurer's Gear" thread, but thought the ladies might enjoy looking at his wares. There is, to me, a definitely vintage style to the products and he will do reproductions of stuff you send him. He works in water buffalo (non-endangered species) bone, horn and also in mother-of-pearl.

The eyeglass frames I thought might have particular appeal.

Helper monkey checking back in. Mister Kim Son emailed me back.

Dear Mr/Ms.Matthew Carberry,

I am sorry in delay to reply you message. I have some business trip and i can not check email in that location.

This is my answer for the spectecle frame without prices in our website. We produce spectacles frame from horn as natural spectacle frame as best quality but we import hinge and spring hinge from big brand company in Germany. That hinge and spring hinge will offer to my customer best spectacle frame. (Check my attched file in this email) That is our different with some manufacturer in the world. Some of them produce from horn but use hinge and spring hinge from China without any insurance. Obe company insure about 50.000 to open and close spectacle frame.

The hinge and spring hinge just arrived here in some days ago. We still need more time to apply them in our spectacle frame. That why i can not public the prices.

Also, i will need some person to test and review my spectacle frame as handgun grips. I will post that late.

About button made of horn,bone and mother of pearl . I can produce follow customer design. They can feel free to discus this issues with me.

Wait for your opinion.

I think it's more a case of not being fully conversant in English.

Matthew could be a girl's name.
