This Artisan Crafted Sterling Silver Bangle Bracelet by Independent Artisans, titled 'Gentle Soul,' is an unusual and one-of-a-kind design from Indonesian artisan Rosalia Tarigan. The bangle is crafted from polished sterling silver, with both ends engraved with intricate, oxidized designs and treated with a subtle hammered finish. This piece celebrates resilience, collaboration, and the enduring soul of silver jewelry.
In the early 2000s, a business trip to East Java introduced this designer to a fading tradition: local silver workshops that had once thrived but were now closing. Determined to revive the craft, she partnered with Ibu Indun, a widowed silversmith, to restore an old workshop. Together with her sister and extended family members, they rebuilt production using traditional tools and techniques while blending modern design elements. She oversees design, marketing, and office work, while Ibu Indun leads the craftsmanship. Their collections combine silver’s timeless beauty with pearls and gemstones sourced from Bali, where partner artisans assist in gem-setting and finishing. Though the journey began with door-to-door sales, government sponsorships soon opened doors to national and international exhibitions. Today, the workshop sustains families in East Java, with each design celebrating resilience, collaboration, and the enduring soul of silver jewelry.
Crafted in Indonesia from .925 sterling silver with a combination finish, the bangle has an inner circumference of 7.8 inches and a width of 0.2 inches.
