Jim, I "inherited" a Ranieri pick yes, real tortoise-shell! with one of the vintage mandolins I acquired (I forget which one...) I once sent it to bratsche, who made a scan of it, so I am sure she can replicate it beautifully in ivory, if copies are desired.
If you want the one I have, you can have it. I, for one, cannot play ANYthing on it, and fully assume the fault is mine. So, we could call it a "permanent loan", as it were, of this pick from my collection to yours #
