We are so proud to bring you The Bali Artisan Collection, part of our Global Communities initiative where we source gorgeous, handmade items direct from local artisans and inject much-needed funds into the local economy of developing nations.

It feels so good to be the change we want to see in the world! To support our fellow humankind. To share the love and prosperity we are all fortunate to enjoy, and that others in the world have not received an equal share of.

We also get the opportunity to support good, kind, caring peaceful human beings and reward them for the positive contribution they make to the world. There's not enough people out there like them and we want to be a part of growing this side of humanity!

All of our Balinese fine silver jewellery is sourced from a distributor called Wayan, who is a beautiful person. She worked in the jewellery industry for over a decade and started her own store 7 years ago. It's a modest store in the heart of Bali and she sources all of her gorgeous silver jewellery exclusively from 5 independent silversmiths who live and work in Denpasar. They rely on her, and on us, for their livelihoods and I travelled ALL over Bali trying to find beautiful fine silver jewellery and this was the absolute best quality we found! Wayan shines her silver every single day. She is that dedicated to her beautiful industry and to making her business a success for her silversmiths and we love that sort of passion and dedication. She's also just a beautiful, kind, softly spoken woman. I was making such a large purchase she called her brother in off the street to help her count it all and calculate it to make sure she was getting it right. As I left about an hour later, I was approximately 500m down the street and I hear "thank you, Courtney" and see a man bowing towards me from a discussion he was having on the streets with a group of Balinese men. It was Wayan's brother. Otur purchase from Wayan's store doesnt't just help Wayan. It's helps her family, the families of the  silversmiths she works with and the wider local communities they are all a part of.

This is the Bali way. And it's beautiful. Inspiring. And we are honoured to be a part of it.

This is what you support when you buy from The Bali Artisan Collection. Be the change you want to see in the world. Together we can make a difference!

• Sterling silver ring handmade in Bali from 92.5% silver blended with copper for strength and longevity (100% silver is way too soft to withstand everyday life! This is the highest quality stirling silver we found in Bali and the craftmanship is exceptional)
• One size available - wear it on whichever finger it fits! Midway, or all the way down! We love playing with positioning of these rings!
