After this piece I don't think I can take the time to carve it as I will feel strange trying to sell a piece carved in Synthetic, Faux or Fake jade. Why bother when it is just as easy to carve the real stuff. I would like to hear from buyers how they would feel about a carving of Synthetic jade. Would you pass on it or expect it at a lower price? By the way, I need sharper burs which I have on the way before I can finish this guy, then I may decide to finally keep one, I dunno! Cheers
