moon faces

A one-carat stone of amethyst sparkles with purple hues in this cocktail ring, featuring the face of Saraswati. Hindu goddess of knowledge, wisdom, and art, Saraswati is depicted here by Indonesia's Komang Suastra, who carves her face by hand from bone, surrounding it with sterling silver dot and swirl motifs for an elegant and serene look.

Surrounded by sterling frangipani, the moon guards the mystical secrets of amethyst. The magnificent design is by Bali's Buana, who carves the moon's smiling face from cow bone. The ornate pendant hangs from a dark brown leather necklace cord.

In the curve of the crescent moon, a wise owl watches and waits. These unique dangle earrings are hand-carved of smooth cow bone by Made Wardika, who carefully details each feather. A sterling silver frame crowned by a faceted amethyst completes the design. The earrings swing from sterling hooks.

Inspired by ancient Balinese royalty, Komang Suastra designs this regal pendant necklace to feature the face of a queen, hand-carved from bone. Wearing an elaborate, moon-shaped crown of sterling silver, the queen is accented with purple amethyst gemstones that sparkle in the light. The pendant centers a length of Borobudur 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.

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.
