On a typical day, Paul Maki can be found hard at work at his jeweler’s bench. A native of Berkley, Michigan, the 34-year old jewelry designer spent childhood summers with his grandfather in the Upper Peninsula. Together, they would take metal detectors and go out looking for copper and raw silver. “I liked to beat metal with a hammer even at a young age,” Paul remembers.

Today, Paul channels his passion for precious metals into exclusive designs for Tapper’s clients. Paul says that
“If you can dream it, I can work to make it happen.” To make an appointment with Paul, please contact Tapper’s at (248) 932-7700.
