Thank you, Admin.

Thank you for your help. The scroll holder is now much cleaner. There is some black accumulation in crevices that I cannot remove, and I don't want to get too aggressive so it will have to remain. I have two questions. 1. The interior surfaces, the "crowns" on each end, and the incised pat...
