Octave Mandolin    2021

Sold

Mistress Melody was interested in one of my instruments way back when I was on Etsy. She plays at folk festivals all around the west coast of the US. She dresses the part and is a great musician. She asked me for some Oregon Celtic imagery. So I did the pyrography on it.
