| Outside Was More Interesting Than Inside |
27. Gold and Silver Smith
Agung meant well, but some places are too
commercial, too many tourists go there, the uniqueness is gone. Such was the
case with our visit to Sari Dewi, a large ‘factory’ for jewelry.
 |
| Tools of the Trade But No Demonstration |
Naturally the items offered had a very, very
Indian, Hindu kind of look to them. Not something a Canadian would appreciate
and use in their wardrobe.
 |
| Way Too Ornate For Me |
Some pieces were very elaborate but the metal
was mostly silver, the few gold items were the lesser end of gold, 12 or 14K
and not appealing.
I sat on a bench and the shop served me a mint
tea, Carol tried to find something she could like but it did not take long
before she came and said to Agung to move on to our next stop.
The workmanship was good, it’s just the ‘looks’
are not up Carol’s alley.
