Yuli silver jewelry
"My name is Made Yuliawati, but people often call me 'Made' or 'Yuli' for short. I was born near Celuk village, which has been known throughout the world for handcrafted silver and gold.
"When I was little, I never thought I would work with silver one day. My mother is a silversmith. After finishing her housework – like cooking, cleaning the house and making offerings – she spent the rest of the day working with silver. It was she who taught me the art. Over one year, I learned to handle silver and I enjoy the work. I was really excited to put tiny silver pieces together and create new designs.
"Silver work did not keep me from studying, and by making silver jewelry I could pay my tuition. In 1998, I married a man who is also a silversmith. His educational background in interior design and mine in economic management have made us not only husband and wife, but also working partners."

Well, this again was small but considering the detail and work that went into making this well, it was really nice. Sometimes its just a bit tough trying to judge these items. The webmaster needs to add this enlargement feature.

What a beautiful brooch! I just received this brooch pin, opened the package, and my first thought and words were "Oh, that's beautiful!" The filigree makes it a delicate beauty - such good workmanship! I look forward to wearing this brooch on my jacket for fall and winter along with my sterling silver earrings and necklaces. I'm delighted with this purchase!!
