Not every souvenir has a storey. This one begins with your own hands.

Join an authentic silversmith experience in Kotagede, the historic heart of Yogyakarta’s silver craftsmanship. For generations, local artisans have preserved the delicate art of handcrafted silver jewellery, and now it’s your turn to become part of this living tradition.

Your experience begins with an introduction to Kotagede’s rich silver-making heritage and the traditional techniques that have made this area famous throughout Indonesia.

Inside a welcoming artisan workshop, experienced silversmiths will guide you step by step as you transform raw silver into your own handcrafted jewellery. Whether you choose to create a ring, pendant, or earrings, you’ll learn traditional techniques such as shaping, soldering, filing, sanding, and polishing.

No previous experience is needed. This workshop is designed for beginners while remaining engaging for anyone interested in art, culture, and craftsmanship.

Using 3 grams of genuine silver included in the experience, you’ll create a meaningful keepsake with your own hands. If your chosen design requires additional silver, it can be purchased on-site.

Relax with complimentary local snacks while chatting with the artisans and learning about their daily work and family traditions.

At the end of the workshop, you’ll receive a certificate of participation and leave with a unique piece of jewellery that reflects both your creativity and the centuries-old craftsmanship of Kotagede.

Whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple, with friends, or as a family, this workshop offers one of Yogyakarta’s most memorable cultural experiences.
