  The left cufflink is at an angle probably around 40 degrees to the
surface of the table, I don't know about you, but when I look in the
mirror, I can't see the back of my head. Certainly, 'some' of the
beads should be reflected, but imo, the top beads or the P shouldn't.
On the right-hand cufflink, the P would block the view of the top
beads in real life.

 texture {T_Wood14
 finish { diffuse .05 ambient -.4 specular .3 roughness .001
reflection .03 }}}

  Did I do something wrong with this?
