~Cascade Words don’t come near to conveying the grace of this piece. Not for sale; something similar may be commissioned. No two Lumencrafter sculptures are exactly alike. That’s part of their charm.

~City of Light I & II the first piece, and it’s Cara’s, forever. However, Reid did make a similar piece as a commission.
