Les Riddell - Goldsmith

Today Les Riddell talked to us about gold and how he uses it in his work as a goldsmith. He has a workshop in Old Cromwell Town. He showed us lots of pictures of old Egyptian coffins made from pure gold. We saw pictures of old coins and rings and nuggets, too. He told us lots of interesting things about gold. He mixes gold with other metals to give it different colours. We think gold is beautiful! What else did you learn from listening to Les? Add a comment, try to write lots of different facts. See how many things we can remember!
