This 'Flower Buds' bracelet by Independent Artisans is a captivating and feminine cuff that brings together the lushness of nature and the elegance of traditional Balinese craftsmanship. Crafted by artisan Wayan Neri, this braided sterling silver cuff is adorned with a flourish of garnet and peridot gemstones, resembling delicate flower buds. The vibrant red of the garnet and the fresh green of the peridot create a beautiful contrast against the lustrous silver. The design is not only visually stunning but also thoughtfully crafted for comfort, featuring a concealed hinge. This bracelet is a perfect blend of timeless artistry and modern wearability, ideal for adding a touch of color and sophistication to any ensemble. Each piece is unique due to the natural variations in the stones.
Born in Pengosekan in 1981, this Balinese artisan grew up in a farming family and began working at the age of ten to support her education. Early experiences in wood carving eventually led her to train under a master silversmith during high school, where she discovered her calling. Today, she and her husband run a small workshop, crafting jewelry that blends traditional Balinese motifs with modern aesthetics. Each piece is shaped with manual tools—torches, hammers, and pliers—reflecting dedication and skill. For her, the essence of silverwork lies in transforming her husband’s designs into tangible works of art, rich with cultural meaning. Despite challenges, she remains committed to honesty, resilience, and creativity. Her jewelry embodies the artistry of Bali while carrying forward a tradition deeply rooted in both family and community.
This cuff is handcrafted from .925 sterling silver, with natural garnet and peridot gemstones. It weighs 0.67 oz and measures 6 inches L by 0.3 inches W. It has a combination finish and features a concealed hinge. Made in Indonesia.
