Inspired by Bali and its time-honored jewelry-making traditions, John Hardy’s artisan collective was founded in 1975 with a dedication to handcrafted jewelry. John Hardy is committed to sustainable luxury business practices, their craftspeople and the preservation of Bali. They pride themselves on the value of authenticity; it is the soul of community that makes each piece truly one of a kind.
One of the largest employers on the island of Bali, the John Hardy Workshop & Kapal Bamboo Boutique employs over 500 multi-generational craftspeople, from watercolor artists to metalsmiths. Dedication to heritage artistry not only defines the John Hardy legacy, it retains artisan families that craft jewelry through meditative, communal chain-weaving, hand-hammering and carving.
