Handmade jewelry making of unique hammered 24k & 22k gold jewery by artist-jeweler Ella Kripaka
Hello, my name is ELLA KRIPAKA, I live in Latvia, in small country in the EU. I am the artist, jeweler, designer, goldsmith, and silversmith.
REVIEWS https://www.etsy.com/shop/EllaKripakaJewelry It is my oldest shop "EllaKripakaJewelry" on Etsy with many REVIEWS: average ratings 5.0. I will be very appreciative, please read REVIEWS (sorry I could not be able all these reviews in this site program)
I LIKE TO CREATE beautiful 9999 24k and 22k gold jewelry with my unique art forging with many hammered as in Ancient Empires. I do NOT use Electrical jewelry tools.
ONE-OF-A-KIND JEWELRY: I make unique gold jewelry WITHOUT COPIES with 100% handmade techniques in jewelry making as in Ancient Rome, in the Byzantine Empire, Ancient Greece, and Ancient Egypt. I create HANDMADE beautiful designs and HANDMADE UNIQUE FORMS of 24k and 22k gold jewelry after art forging. I make ALL CREATIVE WORKS with various hammers and open hot flame.
In my small country, I am the only 1 artist-goldsmith who creates UNIQUE HAMMERED 24k 9999 gold jewelry and connects parts with SMALL PIECES of 9999 gold.
I HAVE LIKED ANCIENT GOLD TREASURES since my childhood. I studied HISTORY at Latvian University. I read MANY SCIENTIFIC BOOKS about ANCIENT techniques of JEWELRY MAKING. In many countries, I visited many ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUMS with gold treasures while traveling with my husband. Over 15 years ago I began to create hammered gold jewelry with my unique art forging. I studied Handmade Jewelry making from a few private goldsmiths courses in Latvia and Italy,
I CREATE MY OWN DESIGN OF HAMMERED GOLD JEWELRY, many designs were inspirited by ANCIENT GOLD TREASURES from Ancient Empires.
IN MY OPINION: humans may wear BIGGER / MORE 24k 9999 GOLD JEWELRY EVERY DAY as humans in Ancient Empires. And I designed 24k gold jewelry with STRONGER THICKER designs for MEN and WOMEN.
CREATIVE DIRECTOR OF DIOR JEWELRY DEPARTMENT - EXTRAORDINARY ARTIST JEWELER VICTOIRE DE CASTELLANE purchased 2 times during 1 year: 2 custom hammered organic heavy gold cuffs, big in wide, sparkle after hand polishing. I created 2 wonderful one-of-a-kind osh cuffs with uneven organic reliefs with my unique handmade art forging. Bracelets were very beautiful pieces of art in gold jewelry.
I USE 9999 SWISS GOLD for 24k gold jewelry without other metals. In 24k gold jewelry, I connect parts with small pieces of 9999 gold and open hot flame, and then I create art forging: It is ART from Ancient Empires. I never use 22k gold solders creating 24k gold jewelry. But other jewelers do 22k gold solder in their 24k gold jewelry. If I will make 22k gold solder then The Assay Office of Latvia will make 916 hallmark instead of 999 hallmark.
VERY DURABLE GOLD JEWELRY: I create the BIGGEST HARDNESS in 24k gold with large long creative works. I designed 24k 9999 gold jewelry thicker and stronger for DURABLE GOLD JEWELRY. I make the BIGGEST HARDNESS of 22k GOLD JEWELRY too, so 22k gold jewelry is VERY DURABLE too.
MORE GOLD WEIGHT in the gold jewelry can be with the Custom order if you want.
GOLD RICH COLOR: I use 9999 SWISS gold without other metals with a wonderful natural rich yellow gold color in 24k jewelry. I make high-quality 92.5% gold alloy with the color of 22k gold closer to the natural color of 24k gold.
The color of 22k gold is a bit lighter in yellow gold than 24k gold.
Pictures are made from 24k gold jewelry.
PRIVATE CUSTOM ORDERS: width, length, size, thickness of gold jewelry can be smaller or larger or with other weight. I CAN CALCULATE INDIVIDUAL SIZE WITH WEIGHT FOR YOU. If you want: send me your picture, I can draw my sketch on paper FOR FREE.
FREE SHIPPING is via DHL EXPRESS, it is a discount. DHL INSURANCE is a Gift. Shipping is with a Tracking number. (Please read Shipping Policies)
HALLMARKS AND WEIGHT: All gold jewelry always has LATVIAN STATE HALLMARK of The Assay Office of Latvia: 999 for 24k gold and 916 for 22k gold. WEIGHT is made in The Assay Office of Latvia with their papers (in parcels).
FOR 92.5% GOLD IN 22K JEWELRY: At the beginning of the creative works, I always buy Swiss 24k 9999 gold, then I make high-quality gold alloy with silver and copper. I make 92.5% gold, and I use 93%-95% SOLDER for beauty.
CUSTOM GOLD JEWELRY, MADE TO ORDER ALWAYS: In my shop, all gold jewelry is always CUSTOM.
HAMMERED SHINY SPARKLE SURFACES OF GOLD: beautiful hammered art textures on gold are EXCELLENT FOR A LONG TIME. I make HAND POLISHING without jewelry industrial machines for shiny hammered gold.
HAMMERED HANDMADE GOLD JEWELRY IS VERY TRENDY and it will be MORE TRENDY in the future.
THE HIGHEST STANDARD OF GOLD IN THE ECOLOGY OF PLANET: In my creative works I always use 9999 SWISS gold with the HIGHEST STANDARD for the ENVIRONMENT
FINE SILVER 999 HAMMERED DECORATIVE DESIGN ITEMS represent a unique blend of my artistry and craftsmanship. Each piece is meticulously handcrafted by me, ensuring that it embodies the essence of fine art forging. The process involves the use of multiple hammers, allowing for intricate designs that reflect the beauty of nature. The inspiration drawn from natural forms is evident in the designs, which often mimic organic shapes and textures. This connection to nature not only adds aesthetic value but also creates a sense of harmony within various interior settings.
