Ketut Sulastri handcrafted sterling silver and gemstone jewelry

"I'm Ketut Sulastri and I make jewelry. I'm a married woman who is known to be a hard worker, and a diligent and happy woman. I was born to parents who were construction workers. Since I was a little girl, I used to work after school as a silversmith to pay the school fees and help my parents so they could buy things.

"I learned to craft jewelry by observing people making it. When I was 15, I started taking orders and making them at home. I also started creating my own designs. Since I like jewelry so much, this became more of a hobby. Many of my designs are inspired by traditional Balinese arts and crafts combined with the current jewelry trends.

"I opened a small shop ten years later to sell my designs. That was a great moment in my life, and I felt my life was improving so I could help my parents and also my neighbors by giving them orders to complete. Now there are 20 women who assist me, and they are mostly homemakers from my neighborhood. They now have a chance to earn more money and have a better life.

"I use sterling silver, gemstones, beads and nylon cord in my creations. We use manual tools like scissors, needles, solder and pliers.

"I hope everyone helps us to sell more of my designs, so I can recruit more neighborhood women who really need more income."

    My ring arrived yesterday and is an accurate match with the photo and description on the website. It is pretty and light, and the workmanship is of high quality... My only quibble is that the garnet and the peridot are set slightly too far apart so that they are not fully visible on my ring finger, and they rub a bit against my middle finger and pinkie (respectively).

    the universe offers up every so often. My mother's birthstone is garnet. My best friend's is peridot. The moonstone represents me- because I love them both to the moon and back. I bought 3- I will keep one and give the others to mom for giving me away and my bff for being maid of honor in my wedding next month.
