Hello Jay, wanted to achieve a more subtle rendition on the upper strands which are thinner indeed.

Bonjour Paul,
A question if I may relative to your superb timbalier de la Grenadiers a cheval: is there a reason that you did not use the twisted copper wire on the top fringe of the kettledrum banner? Please don't take this as a criticism (it isn't). I'm just curious. Thanks. Jay
