Jana, works good, but as critics can say that all is slipping so-called "production" realism.
1. Working with the guys on the edge of the first work
2. What this "sweet", a culinary shop differs from the best weavers times of socialism?
3. Sov confidence in the fact that men do not get this time, so get in the other. Love is not, so one routine. "He was so bored with it, that it even sleepy.
4. Again the theme of the modern industrial way. ( "At the mine, for example.)
But, I repeat, the hand of a professional artist felt.

Faberge eggs - the famous series of jewelry firm of Carl Faberge. Series was created between 1885 and 1917. for Russia's imperial family and private buyers. Total known about the establishment of 71 pieces, of which the emperor is 54.

The phrase "Faberge Egg" has become synonymous with luxury and the emblem of the wealth of the Imperial House of Russia.

In 2008 it was announced the re-establishment of the company Faberge and plan to resume production of the famous jewel-encrusted eggs.

I can not believe that human hands can create such a work of art. One egg of another beautiful
