AT JOHN HARDY
A Master Class in Artisanal Jewellery-Making
Established in Bali in 1975, John Hardy is renowned for its artisan handcrafted jewellery, created using Balinese techniques passed down through generations.
This immersive experience offers a rare opportunity to explore the artistry behind jewellery-making under the guidance of a Master Artisan from John Hardy. Guests are invited behind the scenes to witness intricate craftsmanship first-hand, gaining insight into heritage techniques and the multi-step process that brings each piece to life.
