Sterling Silver Openwork Half-Hoop Earrings from Bali 'Merajan Majesty' These 'Merajan Majesty' half-hoop earrings by Independent Artisans are a heavenly and majestic creation from designer Made Sugi. Inspired by the Balinese merajan, or temples, each earring is handcrafted from sterling silver with openwork spirals and bubble motifs. The triangular dot designs and a combination of finishes bring a sense of sacred elegance to the accessory. This piece beautifully embodies Balinese culture and artistry, showcasing Made's dedication to preserving silversmithing traditions.
Born in Bali in 1975, Made Sugi was raised in a community where silversmithing thrives. Inspired by her surroundings, she learned the craft after helping in her husband’s workshop, gradually moving from cleaning and shaping silver to designing her own pieces. Together, they now lead a workshop of 15 artisans who use traditional tools to create intricate designs in silver, gemstones, and pearls. Her jewelry often features classic Balinese motifs such as jawan (silver bubbles) and bun (swirls), patterns that require great precision and skill. Despite personal challenges, including an injury to her hand, Made lives by the motto “never give up.” Her creations embody Balinese culture and artistry, offering jewelry that is both meaningful and distinctive. Through her work, she hopes to keep the silversmithing tradition alive for future generations.
Handcrafted in 925 sterling silver, these earrings measure 0.8 inches H x 0.5 inches W x 0.5 inches D and weigh 0.21 oz. They feature a combination finish and post earring style.
