creative bracelets

This bold bracelet by Tomomi showcases braided textures. Featuring interlacing created by hand, the wristband is handcrafted of brown leather.

Tomomi creates a delightful bracelet to illustrate the concept of unity. A single piece of supple brown leather becomes two separate bands, yet comes back together to fasten with a snap.

Supple leather in dark brown is braided to create this elegant bracelet for men and women. The bracelet is centered by a brightly polished sterling silver openwork pendant, flanked by two silver beads.

Inspired by the remnants of a sleeping volcano, Sang Ayu Sardiwati of Bhakti Senang Hati association crafts this striking bracelet. Lava stone and brown agate beads are skillfully strung to create a stretch bracelet. Lava stone is known in Indonesian culture to dissipate anger and to strengthen one's connection to Mother Earth.

Sang Ayu Sardiwati joined the foundation after obtaining a prosthetic leg as a result of a working accident when she was an adolescent. She uses her handcrafting skills as a therapeutic means of providing for her family.

Henry Anthony Sanny creates a handsome bracelet to be simple yet refined, subtly drawing the eye to the wearer without appearing overly flashy. The Balinese artisan braids leather to form a double band, and the sterling silver button features an abstract lotus design. Sterling silver accents harmonize with the pendant and the rich brown leather in a pleasing design.

This pretty beaded bracelet is the creation of Sang Ayu Sardiwati of Bhakti Senang Hati, a foundation in Bali that assists the physically disabled to attain physical and economic independence and build self-esteem. "Although we live in very limited conditions, my childhood was very happy", says artisan Sang Ayu. "I used to work carrying stones for a dam construction when I was in Junior High School so I can pay the school fee myself. Unfortunately the dam suddenly collapse and huge stones broke my leg. Now I have to use a prosthesis everywhere. I was so depressed, very not confident after the accident, I usually hide and shy whenever people visiting our home. But finally my spirit is back after I saw my parents were crying because my depressed condition. After pray to God, I feel more patient and strong. I even graduated from a university, and I start making handicrafts. After I joined the Foundation, I met my husband and now we have 3 boys." The stretch bracelet is crafted from blue ceramic beads alternating with albesia wood and coconut shell beads.
