Title: Steve Lumma Elephant Tooth!
Post by: GR8CALLS on August 21, 2012, 04:55:19 PM

 Last year I commisioned Steve to do one of his beautiful carved Ivory trumpets. To say that I am happy with what he sent me is an understatement, I'm blown away!!! This trumpet is unbelievable!

Not sure how a trumpet could get any finer. Truly exquisite work. Mr. Lumma is sure one talented guy. Congrats on that one Bill.

I would have to say that Steve Lumma and Dave Constantine are simply in another world when it comes to creative and pure raw talent and I am ever thankful to enjoy their gifts over and over again.  I will refrain from any feable attempt to put into words what lies before us in these pictures for I cannot do justice so I will simply sit back and take it all in.

Thanks Steve for cracking the window open...we know there is a lot more inside and Bill thank you too for sharing this treasure.

My jaw literally dropped when I saw this call. Un-freaking-believeable. I'm not sure talented is strong enough--maybe gifted, blessed or just "downright" good. Steve that is one FINE call. Congrats, Bill.
