Dora smiled and nodded. "What would you like for me to make?"
"The tradition is for new crafters to make their first item for an employer for themselves to use. So, make an item that you would wear daily while working, and I will enhance it for use.
Assuming that you can create an item of the required standard, that is." Karl explained.
Dora nodded, and created a simple silver hoop bracelet, about two centimetres wide, with a scaled pattern on the outside and a smooth interior.
Karl examined the item carefully. "Can you create complex carvings? I see that this is a repeating pattern."
Dora shook her head. "That is pushing it for my skills. Normally, I would create them with a smooth surface."
Karl shrugged. "That is fine. We have skilled sculptors on staff, and most of the items will be getting visible upgrades anyhow. But before this, I have a work contract for you.
