Carved Purpleheart Medal of Honour

I hand carved this replica, for a war veteran. It's scaled up seven times, from the original size. I carved it from solid 8/4 purpleheart hardwood. The medal has three layers of 23carat gold leaf on the front and back. The actual size of the carving is 1 3/4" thick x 7 1/2" wide x 16" Long.

That is an incredible piece of art!

I am sure the Veteran was quite pleased.

Tell him/her thank you for their service.

How much would you charge to make another one? My wife Marci received the purple heart while on tour in Iraq and this would make an excellent gift.
