INFORMAL PUBLICATION
Our various ranges are characterized by the absence of mechanical reproduction methods. Full focus is placed on
pride in handcrafted pieces.
Precious metal in 'fine' or pure form is alloyed to internationally recognised standards and caratage. Gold and silver
are then either hand formed or cast. Casting methods are identical in principle to those used in many countries for
centuries past. Pieces are then finished by hand and assembled.
Our range includes individualized jewellery, very strong Ethnic/Africa collections, unique knives for collectors,
personal gifts, client-specific corporate gifts and Art castings.
Researched, Designed & Manufactured

All the material and the products shown in this brochure are subject to copyright. No
unauthorised reproduction may be performed. We will enforce its copyright vigorously.
They use elements, configurations and styles from authentic African masks.
The purpose for which pieces are created fit the broadly accepted functions of tribal masks.
Designs are subtle and discreet intransforming African mask mythology into jewellery.
THE POWER OF ANY TALISMAN, TOKEN OR TOTEM IS IN COMPLEX RELATIONSHIP TO THE INTENSITY OF OUR BELIEF IN IT AND WHAT IT STANDS FOR.
