The Ancient Art of Balinese Silver

Bali is not just beaches; it is an island of artists. The tradition of metalworking in Bali dates back to the Majapahit Empire. Originally, goldsmiths and silversmiths (Pandai Emas/Perak) created ornaments for the Kings and temples.

The village of Celuk became the epicenter of this craft. Today, this tradition has spread to Ubud, allowing visitors to not just watch, but participate. At our workshop, we honor these ancient techniques by avoiding modern mass-production machines and relying on hand tools.
