I was born in 1995 in a Balinese town where most of the people work with silver. Workshops abound, as do shops selling our beautiful silver art.
I'm single, and like travel and adventure.
I'm the older of two children and my father is Komang Suartra, another featured artisan. I want to continue my father's silver artistry, but I have a different concept and themes in my designs. They tend to depict the floral and animal motifs that I love and want to preserve.
My father began teaching me when I was in sixth grade. I began with the repoussé technique for embossing silver. A year later, I began making jewelry to sell to my classmates. I continued doing this until I graduated from the university, and now I'm setting up my own silver workshop.
Indonesia is rich in flora and fauna species and these inspire my designs. I want to preserve their existence and also want to introduce them to others.
I work with the help of three silversmiths who help me to craft my designs. In addition to sterling silver, I use cultured pearls, carved bone and gemstones, and work with semi-traditional tools, including a stove and polishing machine, solders, tongs and more.

NOVICA was started with a dream to create a better world for artisans, because a better world for artisans is a better world for all.
Along the way, the founders of NOVICA discovered something very important - as artisans around the world succeeded, there was also a visible and profound impact on the communities around them.
Your purchases are that powerful. They directly and indirectly provide for education, help with health care, fund basic needs, support children, preserve disappearing arts, and of course, spread happiness around the world.
The founders of NOVICA had a vision of the future that is not one of mega factories producing cookie cutter products for all to cheaply consume. Instead, a bright future that celebrates artisans who take the time to create an item by hand. A future where time is protected, where stories are told, where unique details are honored. Love, respect, inclusiveness become driving force.
