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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e: These Cultured Pearl and Sterling Silver Dangle Earrings 'Light Year in White' by Rosalia Tarigan are a pair of charming dangle earrings that create an aura of easy elegance.
