Details

Buana crafts an enchanting amulet necklace, combining cultured pearl and gleaming silver. It frames a portrait of Barong, meticulously carved by hand in bone. Also known as Bhoma, he represents the goodness that destroyed the evil Rangda. His adventures are reenacted in the form of a dance and his image is also hung on doors in Bali to ward off evil spirits.

"Jewelry with something extra"

Instead of a lovely sleepy moon, this is an intricate representation of Bhoma smiling around his tusks......not only a beautiful piece of jewelry, but it makes me feel like I have a protective buddy on board.
