I'm going to show you a few more examples of the shapes here you would see the leaf pattern here with kind of diagonals in a box form and it's just a very simple pattern that you would see berries. This looks like a grape leaf with berries on it with little swirls really typical of pink luster. Here is another cup right here that has a house pattern on it which I really like which is full of pink luster. You would see a lot of color in this this is a really nice desirable piece of pink luster so this is a little a few examples that we have to show you here. Here is one that doesn't have as much it has the grape leaves to with the heavy color and we can show you down here where the pink luster is. Pretty limited the pink you don't see a lot of pink in here but you also see a lot of leaf pattern and vine pattern, with a little pink detail on the handle on this pitcher. So this is a few examples of the different types of pattern on pink luster so we would showy you a few more later on in the series."
