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!

For ROBERT's Necklace5.0Far better than I hoped for! A piece of fine art. Andrita also surprised me by shipping my project 3 weeks early and it arrived the day before Mothers Day. My Wife loves the piece and I'm pretty sure it will become a family heirloom for my daughter one day.
Thank you so much!

For Code Lyoko: The Eye Of Xana Necklace Pendant5.0I 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 ?

For Yin-Yang Wooden Necklace5.0I want to leave an honest review. The project was to make 3 pendants; yin-yang sign, and two dragons pendants which I was not sure how I want them to be. Andrita was so kind, so patience with me; we discussed the designs, shared images and ideas, then I trusted Andrita and her energy with them.
And wow, I got the pendants and they are incredibly beautiful.. Simple, abstract and realllyyyyy beautiful!
I really like the dragons sooo much.My experience was amazing; very professional, very accurate on time. I am glad I met you here.
I highly recommend Andrita, and I am sure I will ask her for more projects in future.
Thank you! <3

For "The Grace" Signet Ring, Terry Goodkind, Sword Of Truth, Grace5.0Working with Andrita was an amazing experience. She was prompt to answer any message I sent, kept me updated through the whole process, and she did an amazing job. USPS even threw a snag in the shipment process and Andrita was so flexible and worked with me to get the ring here as soon as possible, which I am so thankful for.
It really is a beautiful piece that my boyfriend (huge Sword of Truth series fan) was thrilled with. He refuses to take it off. The fit was perfect, quality of the ring and clarity of the Grace symbol is wonderful, and it has a substantial feel to it. Thank you so much for making my first experience on Custom Made an amazing one. I would definitely buy from Andrita again.
