These Abstract Copper Drop Earrings with Sterling Silver Hooks 'Delightful Abstraction' are designed by Balinese artisan Nyoman Nartawan. These delightful, abstract earrings feature two rounded shapes handcrafted from gleaming copper, which gracefully drop below hooks of sterling silver. The combination of metals creates a distinctive contrast, while the design itself showcases his ability to blend traditional Balinese silversmithing with contemporary trends. These earrings are a testament to his dedication and the enduring legacy of Bali’s metalwork.
Born in Bali as the third of five children to a farming family, this silversmith discovered his craft early, apprenticing with his brother during school years. Guided by his teacher’s advice to practice daily, he refined his skills through dedication, eventually building a workshop of his own. Today, he designs and produces jewelry with a team of artisans and relatives, working primarily with silver, but also combining gold, brass, and copper to achieve distinctive contrasts. His inspiration often comes from magazines and contemporary trends, while his technique remains rooted in traditional Balinese silversmithing. Known for designs that carry unique character, he strives to balance innovation with heritage. Now married to a Japanese woman he met through the craft, he continues to support his family and local community through jewelry, offering pieces that reflect resilience, artistry, and the enduring legacy of Bali’s metalwork.
Handcrafted in Indonesia, these earrings are made from copper with 925 sterling silver hooks. They feature a combination finish, measure 1.7 inches L x 1 inch W, and secure with hook clasps.
