Tucson, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/18/2016 -- Handmade jewelry from artists and silversmiths on the island of Bali are available from the Bali Boutique Online, a web-only store that brings items direct from the creators on this Pacific paradise.
Store owner Michelle Johnson said the decision to bring Bali jewelry to the US for sale online is a combination of many other choices.
"First, the quality of the jewelry is simply amazing. The artists there are just genius, using native materials and things that wash up on the beach. They deserve to have much more widespread recognition," she said. "Second, the silversmiths just have no peer. Everything they create is unique and every piece is a treasure."
On a visit to the Pacific island some years ago, Ms. Johnson said she was amazed, and continues to be surprised, by Bali people and their friendliness. This attitude comes through everything they create.
Second, by selling the natural materials and the sterling silver jewelry online, Ms. Johnson avoids the overhead costs associated with a brick and mortar store.
"I don't have a huge inventory either. Everything I sell is a one-of-a-kind item made in Bali. I buy it right from the artists. I go to the silversmiths' shops. Every piece is something I picked out," she said. "This kind of operation is just not suited for a big store in a commercial district."
By going online, she also manages to reach more people. A physical store requires people to come in a shop. Online, anyone in the world can shop from wherever they are.
"It also means the artists get far more exposure. People who might never hear about Bali can look over what's in my inventory. Then, they can learn more about Bali and discover why it is a paradise," she said.
