Bracelet Indonesia

Bought this bracelet many, many years ago, I had it stored in "some drawer". It is Sterling silver and the reddish parts are Gold. Its design was said to symbolize a lizard. Possibly it is from Bali, but I am not sure. The nice thing, I can still wear it (it is open in the back).

    Beautiful Eva, it gives the impression of their batik work. You did well on your early travels. Gr. Ingrid

    @Thank you Ingrid. I am happy to have  it re-found, and I can still wear it comfortably, as it is open in the back. Normally I have bracelets made of all kinds of mixed materials and I also like them a lot, but this one is high class material (Sterling silver with Gold).

    What a beautiful piece - I've only discovered the picture now. I like Balinese silver work very much, especially the granulation is superb!

    @Thank you Betty. Sorry that I only reply now. (bin krank, Magen-Darm-Grippe).  I  have no idea about Balinese silver work, will try to find some info online.

    Oh, I'm sorry Eva. Get well soon! Lots of rest and home-made chicken soup as soon as you feel good enough to eat!
