Cejilla's to hel;p Japan Disaster Relief

Some of you may know that I make all different kinds of Cejilla's. I have made a couple of special ones that are on Auction on Ebay and 100% of the proceeds go to the Red Cross for Japan Disaster Relief.
I know its a small effort but every bit can help.
These Cejillas are made from Bamboo and feature the Japanese Sun symbol as well as a Kanji symbol for Healing.
The Japanese are great friends of Flamenco, please help to show your support too. I cannot imagine what it must be like to have nothing, sitting on a blanket waiting for food and news.
Help chase the price up, after all its not about getting a cheap cejilla but you will get a good unique cejilla in return. Again, no money goes to me.
Thanks for looking.

Thank you. If you mean how much are these? As much as can be raised on Auction.
I will be adding some of my others and will also donate 25% of those proceeds.

Is there only one of these special edition models or are you planning on putting more of them up for auction?

EDIT: I see there are two of them.

The Auctions for these Cejillas ended. I would like to thank everyone who placed a bid for helping get these sold and we raised over $120 for the Red Cross in this effort. Its not much but every bit helps. I dont know if the winners are members or this forum but Thank You for your support and congratulations!
Liam

Thanks Liam!
I won the top one. I expected the price to shoot up in the end, but it ended at a very modest sum. Still I guess many tiny streams add up.

Greatly looking forward to it and checking it out on my guitar. Both are cejillas are very beautiful!
