This Garnet Sterling Silver Starfish Cocktail Ring 'Red Starfish' by Independent Artisans is a whimsical and elegant piece inspired by the ocean's mystical allure. Designed by third-generation Balinese artisan Nyoman Rena, this ring features a beautifully detailed starfish, a symbol of divinity and renewal. The sterling silver is expertly shaped to capture the delicate form of the sea creature, while a faceted garnet gemstone at its center adds an alluring, radiant glow. The piece combines Rena's traditional carving skills with his metalwork expertise, creating a unique accessory that feels both deeply personal and universally enchanting. This is a perfect piece for anyone who feels a connection to the sea and its rich symbolism.
Born in Bali, Rena is a third-generation artisan who grew up immersed in traditional craftsmanship. Encouraged by his grandfather, an architect and master carver, he began woodcarving in elementary school before turning to silver jewelry under the guidance of a local silversmith. By blending his carving skills with metalwork, Rena developed a distinctive style that captures both Balinese heritage and contemporary design. At 25, he established his own workshop, which now supports a team of 12 artisans whose skills he carefully nurtures and organizes. His wife also contributes to the business, while their two children inspire his dedication to growth and innovation. Rena’s jewelry is handcrafted using traditional tools such as hammers, stoves, and chisels, with designs often born from his imagination and attuned to modern fashion trends. From humble beginnings, he has built a thriving workshop and continues to expand his collections, sharing Bali’s artistry with the world.
This ring is handcrafted from .925 sterling silver and a natural faceted garnet gemstone. The ring front measures 0.9 inches long by 1 inch wide by 0.2 inches high, with a band width of 2 mm. The stone's color and variegation will vary.
