By Bali's Nyoman Rena, this intriguing ring depicts a monkey. The artisan works in silver, detailing bright eyes and thick fur with sterling textures. Honored for their role in saving Sita in the Ramayana, monkeys are beloved creatures in Balinese society. Although they sometimes disrupt temple ceremonies with their antics, monkeys are welcomed, for they are regarded as sacred.

"Such a unique ring that captures a monkeys playfulness!"
This is the most adorable ring! Nyoman Rena has captured the playfulness of the monkey in the design -- the monkey is bright-eyed, and has a happy smile. Love the positioning of the monkeys hands, too. One is underneath the monkeys chin, and the other is curved upward next to his face, in front of his ear -- so, typical of monkeys, he is assuming a silly pose, and clowning a bit. The ring has depth and dimension too. The monkeys fur texturing was carved into the original wax sculpt, so you can actually feel it on the silver end product as well. Although not a large ring (in scale) it has a nice, solid weight to it. It makes me smile whenever I look down at my hand.

"What a treasure"
Such a beautiful piece of wearable art. It made me think of a waterfall as it appears to flow. The picture doesn t do it justice. It has a very nice weight to it and will suit a heavier chain or cord. A quality piece for a great value.

"These are so cute!"
And octopus is an interesting sea creature. I love the way these earrings are done. They look very decorative and pretty and then when you look closely you see that it is an octopus! They are great for wearing on a cruise or a tropical trip or a to pool party, or anytime you feel like putting on some of your beach jewelry for a fun day out!
