Have a look at pictures of happy clients designs.

All Sea Gypsy Online's Egyptian gold pieces are totally handcrafted.  Usually three craftsmen work on each Cartouche.  The first craftsman draws the design on paper then onto the actual gold.  The second cuts the piece or its individual parts and then sculpts them into the required shapes.  Finally the third person assembles the parts and adds the finishing touches.

Fortunately, you don’t need to be a jet-setter to buy Egyptian Gold Cartouche or other pieces of Egyptian gold as Sea Gypsy Online can arrange it all for you from the comfort of your own home anytime day or night 24/7. The Flooding of the Nile (Wafaa Elnil) annual holiday is taken from 15th August for 2 weeks and orders can be delayed during this time as business is closed.

All Egyptian jewellery which is created with precious metals must have a stamp somewhere on the item assuring the authenticity.  Our Cartouches are all 18 carat gold and are hallmark inscribed with the international corresponding number as proof of their authenticity.

The Egyptian body responsible for hallmarks have been trained by the Assay Office in London, U.K.  Most gold sold in Australia and many western countries is of 9 or 12 carat (that's only 37.5 & 50% gold!) the majority of gold jewellery sold and worn in Egypt is at least 18 carat (75% gold). Egyptians often prefer 22 carat (90%) gold but the colour of this purer gold is very orange and not well accepted for typical Western tastes.

Sea Gypsy Online can arrange for Egyptian gold craftsmen to design that piece of jewellery of your dreams. 

Gold has been an important part of Egyptian culture since Pharaonic times. You need only to look at Tutankhamen’s mask and the jewellery the mummy was wearing to realize that the Egyptian love of gold has very ancient roots.  It is worn as an adornment, bought as an investment and is a main part of marriage tradition - Arab men buy their brides gifts of gold called a “Shabka” as part of a dowry.

You can order that special piece you have always wanted designed and hand crafted or made to your specific request.  Contact us if you have something in particular in mind and we will contact our Egyptian craftsmen to create the design.  You will be given pricing and an estimated delivery time within a few days.
