4. The stones and metals jewelers buying population. People bring themselves to sell broken or unwanted jewelry, and usually sell for cheap. Now is the best gold - Italian 750, 583 used to be the Soviet sample, but it is now no longer available, it can only be bought with it. It was replaced by gold 585, which is inferior to the Italian. Turkish gold is considered to be of very poor quality and it is better not to buy
5. Throughout the walls lies a dark dusty sediment. This dust is a result of polishing gold. Dylan calls it "Dust 585".

10. To illustrate the mechanism of production of jewelry, Dylan decides to do a little souvenir for Voxpopuli
11. First you need to define some of the metal will be decoration. It was decided that for the site souvenir will be made of silver

What byserebro acquired the desired shape, it is necessary to melt. Silver melts at a temperature of 1200 degrees Celsius
13. Then, the silver in molten form to pour into the mold. In this case it will be the plate. Working day comes to an end. Dylan decides to continue the work at home
14. - It happens often when you need to complete the work at home. For example, now I have two unfinished projects. This dagger is necessary to restore. In tsarist Russia officers were awarded such daggers. I brought him a man who dagger inherited from his grandfather. Old thing difficult to restore because it is exclusive and made it to the other technologies. By the way, restoration - is perhaps the most profitable in the profession jeweler
15. - But this coin brought me to the restoration of a collector. This coin is the era of Nicholas II. Its value on the black market is about 20 thousand dollars. Rare coin
