This 'Fiery Gate' cuff bracelet by Independent Artisans is a captivating showcase of Bali’s centuries-old silversmithing artistry. The sterling silver cuff features two pear-shaped garnets surrounding an open center, which reveals intricate swirling designs accented with delicate 18k gold plating. The cuff itself is a double rope pattern, known as tali air, capped with matching motifs. This piece balances ornate detail with refined style, making it a stunning addition to any collection. Wear it as a powerful statement piece that celebrates the resilience and artistry of Balinese culture.
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.
Handcrafted in 925 sterling silver with 18k gold plating and natural garnets, this cuff bracelet measures 6.3 inches in length from end to end with a width of 0.2 inches. The pendants measure 1.5 inches in length by 0.5 inches in width. It features a combination finish.
