  • i like to follow the jewelry from silver melting untill wearing the jewel

    thanx too ayis

  • this is a very unusual photo, I have never seen this before, although I visited  silversmiths in TImbuktu and in the countryside of Mali. This is how the bangles are decorated and bent only after the decoration is finished! I did not know, it is a great photo to show how it is produced!!!

  • thanks eva lea . vielen dank. this jewelry was produced for me and was standing 2 hours a day near silversmith when they are working. i had some own design and was helping to do them.

    i still have one in the left side. i make a picture tomorrow for you to see how it is finished

  • hi eva lea. i just added a photo of one bracelet in the left. so you can see how it looks when finished
