Looks great, was unsure of the base at first but it really gives the platter nice depth off the table!

I like it and agree the base gives it a nice line to the top.

Geez too late now, but I would have put 50th Anniversary instead of years, to me it looks like they both died

smife,
a real beauty, worthy of a 50th anniversary present. How did you do the black circles as they add a very nice contrast
cheers
