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!

Paddy Flavell
For Paddy's NecklaceAndrita has been absolutely fantastic. Not only has she made an amazing product (making some great recommendations along the way) but she is also so helpful answering any questions you have or taking into account any requests you make. She is not just a great artisan but truly strives to communicate and make sure she makes the product exactly as you want it (and once again she can come up with some great ideas of her own). Fast and efficient I truly recommend you put your trust in her too bring your idea to light. Superb I couldn't have asked for anything more. Thank you soooo much. : )
