basic rings

Designed with an elabourate array of curling tendrils, Budiharta's hoop earrings are anything but basic. The Balinese artisan uses sterling silver to create the earrings, carefully twisting the slender wires into a stunning openwork motif that shines in a combination finish.

Inspired by foliage, Budiharta's hoop earrings are an elegant twist on a basic accessory. The Balinese artisan uses sterling silver to create the hoops, hand crafting a series of openwork design by gently twisting the slender wires. A polished motif shines beautifully next to the curling tendrils.

When designing her jewellery, Peru's Susan Alfaro says she likes "...applying creativity to basic pieces and looking at the same object from different perspectives." For this modern cocktail ring, she elevates a simple triangle shape by adding a pyramid-shaped chrysocolla stone in a bezel setting and accenting it with three metallic spheres. She works with sterling silver which is polished to a brilliant shine.
