Handmade sterling silver pendant/ring (priced by weight)

The same Balinese silverwork sold under designer labels for hundreds of dollars costs a fraction at source, priced by weight plus honest labor

Price: 400000 IDR (Typical ~8-12g handmade 925 granulation-work piece at a Celuk family workshop; priced off the day's silver rate plus modest labor)

Where to buy: Family workshops along Jalan Raya Celuk, Sukawati — skip the big tour-bus showrooms (30-50% commission built in) for side-street ateliers

• Ask the price per gram first (workshops quote it openly), then the labor charge — that is how locals buy
• Look for the 925 stamp; test with a magnet if unsure (silver is non-magnetic)
• Jantra-style granulation and filigree are the Celuk signatures Western brands like John Hardy built on — John Hardy's own atelier is nearby in Mambal
• Workshops are rarely VAT-refund registered; treat the price as final
