It is definitely an eye popper in person. The color and graining are amazing. My camera doesn't do it justice. This is the link to the other post I submitted. http://forum.talkingmachine.info/viewto ... 27#p159127

This phonograph literally takes my breath away. It has to be the most attractive grain patterns of any Circassian phonograph from any manufacturer that I have ever seen. Congratulations on a great addition to your collection.
