Home Elegant Gem - inlay Filigree Bracelet
Product Details

For the devoted, our Rosary Cross Bracelet is ornate yet functional. The one-decade rosary consists of ten “Hail Mary” beads, an “Our Father” tambourine (also called the Amami), and a cross pendant.

Handcrafted in gold filigree, a meticulous and rare technique perfected by the plateros of Ilocos Sur. Each bead is so intricately designed, it takes over a week for artisans to complete just one bracelet!

About the Craftmanship: The artistry of gold filigree craftsmanship has been practiced by native plateros for centuries. The platero begins by melting blocks of gold or silver, repeatedly hammering and cooling them until they become fine and delicate threads. The threads are carefully shaped by hand into "kalado" or lace-like patterns inspired by nature. To craft more intricate pieces, the platero individually welds small drops together to form beautiful heirlooms.
