Although Ghana exports the majority of its gold and other mineral resources, there are a number of individuals and businesses in Ghana that manufacture jewelry. Some of the materials used are from other countries.

There are new developments in the production of old aphorisms and symbols influenced by global culture. This is reflected in the use of brand names and logos, as well as the initials of customers’ names, in the manufacture of jewelry in Ghana. 

Jewelry can be found in Ghana at goldsmiths’ workshops and showrooms, jewelry retail shops, festivals and durbars, and visits to the homes of chiefs and traditional rulers.
