Start a new life. Day 5. Jewelry lesson

On the fifth day of the project, the kind fairies-organizers presented me with the fulfillment of another dream - a jewelry lesson. I had to make a piece of jewelry on my own - a silver ring, of course, under the guidance of masters of their craft.

<p> I was very lucky with the teacher. Lyudmila Surikova is a jeweler and teacher from God. So calmly, clearly and in detail to explain the tasks that are completely new for me, without overloading with professional slang and patiently correcting and guiding, not everyone can. First, they gave me an apron for safety, and then we went to melt the silver - and this is the coolest thing in the whole master class. Just imagine, you bring the burner to the crucible (this is a container designed for melting metals) with a scrap of silver, and the flame becomes iridescent - I have not seen anything more beautiful, this is a truly mesmerizing sight, the magic that you create with your own hands. I felt like a dragon sorceress breathing out flame. It was like I was in a fairytale smithy, where students, under the guidance of venerable wizards, learn the basics of magic. At the exit, we got a drop of molten metal, poured it into a mold, and then took it out and cooled it. </p>
<p> Then I tortured the resulting piece of metal in all possible ways - I beat it with a hammer, flattened it in a special machine, sawed it with a jigsaw, bent it and hit it again with a hammer. </p>

In general, you can make a ring with a stone - a showcase with stones (nothing overvalued, but everything is very beautiful) attracted to itself like a magnet, the opals I adored were presented on the showcase in all possible colors.

It was decided to use a simpler technique - I could pound the surface with a hammer, creating a beautiful “crumpled” structure.

But back to our rams, that is, to me with a hammer at the ready. By this time, the base of the ring was made, and we realized empirically that chasing is not for me (chasing is an image embossed on a metal product). I was thinking of making a ring with the image of cat paws. But this requires strength - to get a clear image you need one clear blow, and I couldn't get it. Therefore, it was decided to use a simpler technique - I could pound the surface with a hammer, creating a beautiful "crumpled" structure. I coped with this with a bang - it turned out to be a stylish silver ring, at first glance it seems simple, but due to its structure and thickness, it is very fashionable. I adore it, I do not take it off my hand and I can’t stop looking at it.

Many thanks to the jewelry workshop for such a wonderful lesson. When the ring was ready, everyone came up, looked, praised, it was incredibly pleasant.
