Default Dmitry Martinov intro

International greetings,

My name is Dmitry Martinov. I'm a gold/silversmith from Latvia. Here is some pictures of my works I made some time ago. Unfortunatelly I don't have some pictures of my works made recently, and I can promis that you will see them as soon as I get the pictures of them.

This was my first serious (IMHO) silversmithing object I made. This is business cards stand. Sterling silver( 925). The square stand is 100x100 mm, and about 195 mm high .The weight of ~230 gr. I took 1 month and 2 weeks to make it. I think you will like it . Enjoy

How very inventive! I love the business card stand, and the flowers.... I wouldn't know which to choose! It looks like the lamp is hanging on a letter "M" - Does this have any significance - Is it your signature to your work - M for Martinov?
Again, I wish I could accomplish something similar.

Very amazing Dmitry ! I fully agree in what the others say about your work. Excellent craftmanship !
I especially like the catfish trophy. It has a really nice flow and you captured the motion of the fish perfectly.
I just wish I could express myself better in English but I think you know what I mean.
