This is one of two identical brass vases I bought in Yokosuka Japan while aboard the aircraft carrier USS Oriskany CVA-34. Sadly, over these past 52 years since that time, the brass has gotten very pitted.

And this is a hand carved cigarette box I bought in the Philippines during that 1966 cruise.

Gene, those are both lovely objects,
very well presented.

Shame about the brass pitting, although it doesn't show much.

I also appreciate your discrete watermarks. :-)
