At least, I must say, photographing such multiply bent and twisted objects like Pipit Teleng hilts is very difficult (to give viewer a possibility to judge the overall shape from a couple of pictures), and for a viewer to get an idea of a complete object from a couple of pictures also requires considerable skill.
The best is to handle and compare them in the hand.

Here a couple of pictures of mine. These are only average quality, one has fancier grain, but the other is a bit better carved regarding the flow of masses.
Almost unperceptible in pictures, noticeable in hand.
