In some way I tried to match the rope motif from the bottom band to all the bands, including the top band.

You've done a fantastic job as always Jose.
It looks perfectly in keeping with the piece, well done.

Jose you are a true artist.

Beautiful work as always Jose. Looking forward to seeing your next project.

P.S.
Showing pictures of the work in progress is one of the best ways to show your work skills and it adds a whole new depth to the thread. I can never remember to do this when doing any repairs myself, I can't even remember to take before and after shots most of the time.

What shall I still add? Agree with the others, good work again!
