I feel the same way about the carvings, but no one was selling a set of accurate carvings when I made that inquiry. The Chinese carving set was the closest to accurate and they are no longer available. Unfortunately, we have to make our own. Janos did a great job on his carvings. They take a couple years to make. My plan is to make 3-D models of all the decorations when I get to that stage and print them with a 3-D resin printer. That way, I can edit them when they don't turn out well and re-print them until they are good enough. After that, I want to make the files available to other modelers so they don't have to face this same problem. Before that, I have to learn the Blender modeling program. I have experience as a 3-D modeler and animator, so the learning curve will not be as steep. It will be a could years before I start on the decorations, though.
