Highlights
- GBE Silver Class - Within the confines of my hometown, Delodsema, a significant 70% of the male population are engaged in the craft of silver smithing. This trade is the cornerstone of our local economy, accounting for more than half of our economic activity. My upbringing in a family of silver smiths has inspired me to establish this workshop, allowing you to immerse yourself in the art of jewelry making. Importantly, my enterprise supports the local community by providing additional income and showcasing their craftsmanship to international visitors. Our instructors are all natives of the area, and a portion of our proceeds is reinvested into the village.\nThe experience begins with transportation from your location to our Delodsema workshop. Upon arrival, we extend a heartfelt welcome with complimentary coffee or tea, accompanied by traditional Balinese treats. As we savor these refreshments, we’ll share insights into the Balinese way of life, cultural practices, and customs. We’ll also present a variety of jewelry samples for your inspiration, and we encourage you to share any design ideas you may have. Following this, we’ll proceed to prepare the silver, offering hands-on assistance throughout the entire process, from heating and cutting to cleaning and finishing. Your safety is our priority, and we’re committed to helping you craft the piece of jewelry you envision.

Additional Information
What make this activity unique is you and the people in it.
The idea behind this activity is from my customer, one day my guest like to see the process behind the jewelry and i take them to my family business to see the process i explain to them a lot of thing including our house concept and culture in bali, they’re so happy about it and gave us an idea why we don’t create an activity for travellers who want to try make jewelry and know more about balinese history,culture and concept of houses, and here we are.
We are experience, quality and friendly team, we’ve been work as silver smith for 15 years more we are experienced enough to be instructor for it. Born & raise as native also able to speak english gave us the ability to know and explain our culture, traditions, history and also concept of houses in bali to customers who book our activity
and the other thing about us is, some of our team also tour guide who could help you with more things. so see you soon guys

Fantastic! - This was fantastic! The rings that my daughter and I made are beautiful and an amazing keepsake from our trip to Bali. Anthony was great, showed us how to do what we needed to do, let us have a go but also stepped in when need be so we walked away with two beautiful pieces. Highly recommend!

Amazing experience, would recommend - Amazing class from start to finish with great value for money. We chose our ring design to match our personalities and were involved in each stage of the process. The two guides were very patient with us and knowledgeable in the field and made sure we felt involved in each process. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience which was above and beyond our expectations. Would definitely recommend. Thankyou!

Super 👍🏻 - Top choice - great and professional team. Very detailed at work and a great atmosphere. In the middle of the jungle, you forge your ring. In advance, you get a selection of models as well as different stones to decorate. After that, the course starts. I can only recommend - thank you very much!

Helpful and Kind - The experience was wonderful. The young man who helped me make my ring and charm was incredibly kind. I am taking off a star because I bought a bracelet from the little shop there that I was told was silver, but it is not. It was only a silver coating that has since peeled away. I was charged $50 USD for the bracelet. Wish I had the opportunity to return it.
