This Handmade Blue Topaz and Amethyst Cuff Bracelet 'Elephant Cave in Blue' is a striking and elegant accessory. Designed by Dewi Putera, the cuff bracelet is handcrafted from sterling silver using an ancient Indonesian silversmithing technique called tatahan. The large pendant is encrusted with faceted amethyst and blue topaz stones. The piece, which celebrates Balinese culture, is a beautiful representation of the artisan's belief that art endures.
Born in Gianyar, Bali, Dewi Putera — whose given name is Putu Lesari Dewi — grew up in a family of artists and inherited her father’s love of drawing and painting. Self-taught through books and guided by imagination, she now channels her creativity into jewelry design, sketching her ideas before collaborating with skilled silversmiths who bring them to life using traditional tools. Her work celebrates Balinese culture and emphasizes the unique beauty of handmade silver jewelry, often incorporating uncommon gemstones to give each piece distinction. Alongside her husband, she has built a workshop that provides employment to more than 20 artisans, helping to preserve both livelihoods and cultural traditions. A devoted mother of three daughters, Dewi believes that happiness and hardship are fleeting, but art endures. Through her designs, she shares the spirit of Bali with the world while honoring the resilience and artistry of her community.
Handcrafted in Indonesia with .925 sterling silver, blue topaz, and amethyst. The bracelet measures 6 inches in length (end to end) and 0.2 inches in width. The pendant measures 2 inches in length and 1.4 inches in width. Colors may vary slightly.
