Garnet Gemstone Necklace with Bali Silver Perfume Box

On a recent trip to Bali, Indonesia, we stayed in the little town of Sanur, where there were a number of shops that sold beautiful silver. But I found a favorite little shop run by my new friend Asri, her daughter and husband. This shop had a little of everything, but her silver was to die for and needless-to-say, I went nuts.

These fabulous pendants are used as either perfume boxes (put in a bit of cotton with a favorite scent) or prayer boxes (roll up a small paper with a wish, prayer or favorite saying). This particular one has a Garnet gemstone at the bottom.
