HOT ! Sterling Silver Filigree Cancer Necklace from Java \'Elegant Cancer\'

Ref No: us117-25894

Design: Born in Central Java, this designer discovered silversmithing later in life after settling near a silver village with her husband. Though her early path was marked by hardship and resilience—working to fund her university studies, teaching English, and later becoming a lecturer—she found her calling in jewelry. Entirely self-taught, she mastered the art of filigree, a technique that weaves fine silver strands into detailed, airy designs. Her jewelry is defined by meticulous craftsmanship and the philosophy she holds dear: “Contemporary by Tradition.” Each piece blends timeless Indonesian artistry with modern wearability, the most delicate stage being the final forming that ensures comfort and elegance. Despite economic and political challenges, her faith and determination carried her forward, and today she is recognized for creating silver jewelry that honors heritage while appealing to contemporary sensibilities. Her work embodies gratitude, perseverance, and beauty.

Designed by Selly Sagita, this sterling silver filigree necklace features the symbol for the zodiac sign Cancer, a crab, within a circular pendant. The high-polish finish adds a lovely shine. This piece is a way to honor heritage while appealing to contemporary sensibilities.
