[Bonetools] WBRG website updates April 2024

Sat Apr 6 23:22:46 CEST 2024

Dear WBRG members,

this month I have chosen an artefact as bonetool of the month, which is related to my PhD-research: an early modern signet with an antler handle. See:

The website of Steve Myhre, famous New Zealand bone carver and author of an important NZ bone carving book (Myhre 1987), has been off-line since several years for technical reasons. Steve just informed me that it has been relaunched recently. If you like NZ carvings, have a look at his very beautiful website at
https://stevemyhre.com/
