Most Balinese Beads and Findings are heavily antiqued using an Oxidisation process unless described as "Bali Bright". This antique process helps to accentuate the intricate detailed silver-work created by the skilled Balinese Silversmiths. Each piece is uniquely handmade, and therefore there will be slight variations and imperfections, this is what makes Balinese Silver so appealing to Designers who specialise in "One-of-a-Kind jewellery." If you require perfection, then you may prefer regular manufactured findings for your designs. We deal with reputable Balinese Silver suppliers who use 92.5% part silver in their work.
We have a lot of old Gift Certificates on our system which need clearing. Currently, we are going through Gift Certificates from late 2008, small value Gift certificates are being deleted. However larger value Gift Certificate holders will receive a new Gift Certificate email notification reminding them of the code and value. These Gift Certificates will be deleted within 30 days of the reminder email being sent out. Gift Certificates are valid for 12 months but we realise that emails which are sent electronically can be easily lost in your inbox over time. Which is why we have this respite before they are deleted from the system.
