Hello Chris,

even if you would go there, I'd have some doubts, that you'd be invited to have a look - reason is, what I told you about copies. Those who make the original stuff do their very best to keep things as secret as possible - and meanwhile even those who copy protect themselves not to be copied...
Some years ago I was invited to have a look how the flowers are made, big piece of confidence - and really fascinating. Beside, that of course I was curious, I wanted to ensure, that the miniatures are not produced by children. So I know, that they are absolutely handcrafted - and that every single of them means at VERY least half an hour of work...
