Highly recommended - A fabulous experience. Making a silver ring, starting from raw silver was an experience in itself, enhanced by the kindness and hospitality of both the hosting craftsman and family, and Upik from the organising entity Lawang Pethuk.
Lawang Pethuk I found out is a social enterprise set up to preserve traditional crafts and livelihoods. Well worth supporting.
I got the meeting point wrong but Upik found me and gave me a ride on her scooter to the correct place.
The craftsman and family were very patient and kind and were happy to share their skills with us. Bottled water and traditional snacks were provided.
After the activity Upik very kindly took us to a nearly mosque and related many stories of the history of the area. Very much appreciated.
I very much recommend this activity. I now have something to wear on my finger to remind me of a very pleasant experience in Jogja.
