day necklaces

Designed and crafted by Bali's Buana, this celestial pendant necklace features two dozing crescent moons. The Balinese artisan hand carves each moon from natural bone, accenting the pendant with a faceted citrine and amethyst in bezel settings. A single cultured freshwater pearl dangles prettily below, while the entire pendant swings from a sterling silver rolo chain.

A peacefully slumbering crescent moon centers this elegant pendant necklace from Bali's Made Wardika. The moon is hand carved of smooth cow bone and set in sterling silver. Accenting the design are faceted garnet and amethyst gems. The pendant centers a sterling silver ball chain.

The alley cat does her best to stay in the shadows. Contending with other night creatures, the feline also prefers to be neither seen nor heard. No wonder they call them "cat burglars!" The nocturnal nature of the notorious alley prowler is captured in beautiful detail by Balinese artisan Made Wardika. The circular pendant features a smiling crescent-moon, hand-carved from bone, with a cat of sterling silver sitting beside it. A pair of faceted garnet gemstones flank them, while the top and bottom are adorned with amethyst and peridot gems. The entire necklace receives a combination of oxidized and high-polish finishes for stunning visual contrast.

The peaceful face of Buddha is captured in bone, carved by hand in the pendant of this Balinese necklace. Made Wardika designs the necklace, elaborating Buddha with a sterling silver headdress, accentuated by garnet and amethyst gemstones with a pair of cultured pearl earrings that dangle from Buddha's ears.

Crafted in a traditional, lovely heart-shaped design, this necklace is the perfect way to wear your emotions on your sleeve, or at least around your neck. Made Wardika handcrafts the exquisite setting from sterling silver in an intricate Balinese motif of tendrils and granules. A faceted amethyst crowns the pendant, while cultured pearls beads dance delicately beneath. However, the main attraction on this necklace is the prominent black heart carved from bone. When illustrated as a symbol of love, hearts are most notably depicted in red but, as black is the combination of all colors, we like to think this heart signifies a love as deep as the night is dark.

Caressed by handcrafted swirls and dot patterns in sterling silver, a lovely crescent moon is hand-carved from a piece of natural bone. Balinese artisan Made Wardika creates this lunar pendant necklace, which is accentuated by a triangular amethyst gem that glitters in the light. Sterling snake chain circles the neck.

A serene and regal face, delicately carved of cow bone, adorns this necklace from Bali's Komang Suastra. She is Candra Kirana, princess of Kediri (a kingdom in East Java). Bedecked with over 2 carats of amethysts and crowned with sterling silver, the pendant is suspended from a sterling silver wheat chain.

Candra Kirana (whose name means 'Radiant Ray of the Moon') was the princess of Kediri in East Java. On the eve of her wedding day, Candra Kirana disappears. A demoness who wants Prince Panji (her bridegroom) for herself takes the form of a beautiful princess and tells the prince that she is his wife but has been transformed by the goddess Durga. Meanwhile, Candra Kirana finds herself deep in the forest, where she attracts the attention of the gods. Disguised by the gods as a man, she travels to the palace to be reunited with her bridegroom. When the demoness’s true identity is revealed, Candra Kirana magically vanishes. Panji goes in search of his bride, who has since become the king of Bali. At the climax, the prince fights with the disguised Chandra Kirana. According to the gods’ command, she must draw Panji’s blood in order to reveal her true identity. For a long time, neither of them brings harm to the other, but eventually Princess Candra Kirana draws her hairpin and pricks Prince Panji; thus she is finally reunited with her beloved.
