About this tour
Learn traditional Balinese silver techniques in Nusa Penida from a practising local craftsperson. Over 90 minutes, you'll work five grams of silver into a finished ring, pendant, or earring using proper metalworking tools. The class suits newcomers and experienced makers alike, offering a genuine hands-on introduction to techniques passed down through generations rather than a tourist performance piece.

- Work directly with a practising Balinese silversmith
- Learn traditional shaping, soldering, and finishing techniques
- Five grams of silver provided; choice of ring, pendant, or earring
- All professional tools and safety equipment included

What to expect
You'll start with a brief orientation to the tools and safety protocols, then begin shaping your silver under the instructor's guidance. Expect hands-on work—filing, forming, possibly light soldering depending on your chosen piece. The craftsperson will demonstrate techniques step-by-step, then watch as you apply them. The pace accommodates both first-timers and people with prior jewellery experience. You'll leave with a wearable piece you've actually made, not a kit assembly.
Good to know
Public transport reaches the area easily. Infants need to sit with an adult. The work involves standing and fine hand movements; not suitable for spinal injuries, advanced pregnancy, or serious heart conditions. Service animals welcome. Wear clothes you don't mind getting marked.
