Here is the beautiful leaf I received in person from Maria.
I didn't really have time to appreciate it fully on the retreat with so much going on, but it is gorgeous, lovely sheen over the autumnal colours and those teeny jigsaw pieces, they are just about half inch, the ticket is the usual size so you can compare with that. Super metal key and other bits, a very lovely leaf, thank you.
