Our workshop accepts men and women to learn the craft after they finish their secondary schooling.Made (pictured above with wife and children) is the foreman of the workshop. He descends from generations of gold and silversmiths and he is dedicated to running a workshop-school that celebrates and preserves this craft. I am grateful to him for his vision. The open air setting is both beautiful and safe. The work spaces are well lighted and situated by a small ornamental fish pond.
This is a photo of the Rishashay workshop in Bali, Indonesia, on Silverworker's Day - a special day of blessing for trade.
I hope you enjoy using these wonderful components.
My best,
John P. Anderson
