MG6065 Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 I can vouch for this, absolute thing of beauty. Certainly nothing like I’ve seen before. Barrels are a work of art in themselves. Love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve d Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Thats lovely. Anyone else studying the contents of their cabinets wondering if the Bosher would entertain a swap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
margun Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 That is stunning and I’d love to buy it, sadly it’s the wrong time though. I’m amazed that someone’s not snapped this up already in the time it’s been available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
