Custom Bear Claw, Elk Ivory & Trophy Jewelry Since 1993
Every trophy tells a story. Since 1993, Mark James Designs has handcrafted one-of-a-kind custom jewelry using bear claws, elk ivories, and other treasured keepsakes from the hunt.
Each piece is individually designed and handcrafted in sterling silver, 14k, 18k, or 22k gold, with gemstones that complement the natural beauty of your trophy, transforming it into a wearable work of art that preserves the memory of the hunt.
Each piece is made to be worn, cherished, and passed down for generations.
Every custom commission starts with your story—whether it’s a bear claw from a once-in-a-lifetime hunt, a pair of elk ivories, or another meaningful keepsake. Together we’ll talk through your vision, metals, style, and budget so the final design is made specifically for you.
Some clients come to me with a clear idea of what they want. Others prefer to share the story, give me a sense of their style, and trust me with the creative freedom to design something unexpected. Either way, the finished piece is created around the trophy, the person, and the meaning behind it.
From the first sketch to the final polish, your trophy is treated with the respect and craftsmanship it deserves, honoring both the hunt and the memories it represents.
Every piece begins with a conversation
