a friendly hello from Germany

[Mario Sarto]

Hello forum,
i am new here and i like to introduce myself (btw: please forgive my poor english - i do as best i can):
41 jears old, lucky father, self-employed goldsmith from Germany (Europe). I love it to read the themes in here and above all to see your awesome works.

Here is a piece of mine (so you can see what i am doing the whole-time :hat: ) - made for my wife some times ago

Greetings Mario,

Gut ein nachbar ans forum zu haben!
And Goldsmith as well!
Nice work on the cross. Did you use a Lindsay to set the stone's? or is this all push engraving work?

Very nice,

Hope to see more of your work.

The cross was done without air pressure, consuetudinarily by muscle and sense :)

Daniel, do you still have to send your jewelry away for hallmarking in Holland?
