This unusual keychain is made with Fossil Mammoth Ivory, Brass and Green Jasper. A carved bone bead completes this composition. The natural cracks in this ancient material are inlayed with brass as well. I can create other styles if you so desire - your inspiration can be brought to life!

I owe my carving career to my mother. She made me peel potatoes when I was a kid and bored with the task I made little figures and animals. She allowed me to practice - and ate without complains a lot of mashed potatoes during this time…
For some time I carved stone and wood until one day, about 30 years ago, someone sold me a piece of fossil mammoth tusk at a flea market. This opened a new world of possibilities and beauty for me and ever since I am in love with this wonderful material.
I had never thought of me being an ivory carver for I am an elephant lover and fiercely protective of them. But the woolly mammoth are long gone and carving their tusks helps to protect the few precious elephants we still have.
You can order custom made jewelry, spiritual art, statues, bookmarks, cufflinks, knifes, historic chess sets and/or you can make me realize your own design. As you can see I can work within a great variety of styles. You can chose between Fossil Mammoth, Bone, Tagua Nut, Leather, Wood, Silver, Bronze, Copper and Steel, Amber, Mother of Pearl, Warthog Tusk - or a combination of all!
I am happy to help you to bring your creations and ideas to life. We will communicate and work together and create beautiful pieces of art that express your personality and/or your feelings toward a person you love.
If you decide to want ivory I guarantee very piece will be made from legal Mammoth. Every piece I have has been found in the permafrost 20 years ago. There will be no replenishing of that supply.
No elephant or endangered species was ever been killed or harmed for my art!
Thank you for visiting my shop. My very best wishes for you and your loved ones!

Jun 25, 2017Andrita did a good job on a very difficult project. The locomotive cane is a good representation. We amended the finishing dat, and she got it to me a little earlier than the newly agreed upon finishing date. I would use her again if I come up with another idea.

Jun 8, 2019I had the eye of XANA pendant made and I could not be happier with the quality of the pendant. It is a nice sterling silver with a amethyst gem in the center. Working with Andrita was great. She responded quickly to my messages and the item delivery was insanely quick for a custom made item. Three days. Thank you Andrita ?

Jun 14, 2016At first, I was unsure of ordering things online. Especially since I'd have to truly trust the person making my gift. But Ms. Huckle really helped me out here and I can say I have a little more faith! I came here in need of a gift and felt this necklace would be great for her. Everyone else I asked gave either really high prices or said they couldn't anything about my request to switch coloring on one disk. But I got an affordable gift, just the way I imagined it to be, with the color swap and everything went smoothly. From talking about it without a proposal to actually getting it in the mail, we were in constant contact. I can say I am incredibly pleased with the service, the gift, and the person who I got it from. Will recommend to anyone who needs something done and most likely come back sometime later for my own things!

Mar 9, 2015I am thrilled with my new custom cane. Andrita took a picture of my car and translated it into the top of a cane. She communicated well with me. I would definitely work with her again. In fact, I got some cards from her in case my classic car loving friends want her to make a cane for them. I am also giving out your web address. Thanks for everything.
