Tell Papa what you see
A name, a symbol, a sketch, a photo of something you love, or a family piece to remake.
Get your price
Papa replies with the design approach, the metal and karat, and a price based on that day's gold or silver market.
Made by hand in about 3 days
Once you approve, he draws the filigree wire, forges, sets stones and polishes the piece himself. Larger work may take longer, and he tells you up front.
What he makes: name pendants and cuffs, Africa and Senegal map pendants, ankh and baobab pendants, filigree rings and earrings, signet and stone rings, and remakes of family jewelry.

Custom order questions
Do you make custom gold jewelry?
Yes. Papa makes custom pieces in 18k and 24k gold and in sterling silver: name pieces, pendants, rings, cuffs, and remakes of family jewelry. A custom piece usually takes about 3 days. Larger or detailed work can take longer, and Papa tells you up front.
Can you remake or redesign a family piece?
Yes. Bring the piece or a photo of it. Papa can rework it into a new design or use it as the starting point for something new, and he will explain the options and price before he starts.
Can you make a name necklace or name cuff?
Yes. Name pendants, name cuffs and initial rings are some of Papa's most requested pieces, in 18k or 24k gold or sterling silver.
How are prices set?
Prices on the site are estimates. Gold and silver prices follow the metal market, so Papa confirms the final price before a piece is sold or made.
