Semper Fi

Something a little different than my usual. This was commissioned as a gift for a retired marine.

The black lacquer finish is so shiny that you see some odd reflections from the light fixture in my office. There is a dark red shadow around the outside of the crest that barely registers unless you see it in person.

The paper inside is a patchwork of marine slogans. My husband, who is also ex-military, loved it so hopefully the recipient will too.

This is for my husband and I can't wait to give it to him! Marie does amazing wrk. I gave her a pic of the crest and she did it perfectly!

I am thrilled and I bet my hubby will be too!
