He appears to be at the top of 'top tier'. He appears to have reached the pinnacle.

Is there a web site where more of his work can be viewed?

Thank you for showing this piece. Viewing it is a treat.

Edit: I just googled Matcase and it sent me back to az members. I didn't realize that matcase is his az name.

Hi Marc

Likewise with yourself my friend. It already is part of my permanent collection, alongside other special items made for me. I have been wanting a case like this for 15 years. If the orders calm down in the next 5 years :smile:, be sure to think about me for our next project (which we mildly discussed, he, he!!)

Take care

Si

Yes Tim, even when decorating leather...a flame by any other name would look as kick ass.

What a Case

thediamond said:
Now I am a big, big fan of the early style cues and cases. With cases, the Envelope style case is right at the top of the list for me. Chas Clements was undoubtedly one of the greatest case makers ever and made the Envelope style case in a way no one else could really copy, such was the level of detail and craftsmanship. Unfortunately, due to his injuries later in life, Chas never made me a case.

Enter Marc Turcasso. Marc makes Envelope style cases of a quality I have only ever seen from Chas. The work that has gone into this case is truly amazing and I am still shocked when I look at it (its been in the house a week now). The grade of leather, the stitching, the carving, the overall package is something that just exudes quality.

I don't say this lightly, Marc's work is on par with the great Chas Clements. I sincerely hope Marc will soon get the recognition he so thoroughly deserves. These cases are as serious as it gets. If you are in the market for something special and are prepared to wait, I can think of no better person.

PS: The cue is Ginky's Tascarella, it looks good in this case.

WOW!!!!




[FONT="Verdana]This guy (Marc) is one of the very few that actually "gets it" when it comes to bringing all the elements together to make, to my eye at least, the PERFECT envelope case. Perfect edges, stitching, tooling and sleek design. Leatherworkers from all disciplines should look at this thing and take notes. This case is truly special.............I must own one someday...........without doubt[/FONT]
