The story of Wanderer Bracelets

In 2014, a twenty-one year old left for Bali and got lost riding his motorbike through the jungle.

He stumbled upon a village of talented artisan carvers struggling to make a living and asked them to make a bracelet to bring back to his friends.

Inspired by the Tolkien quote, Not all those who wander are lost, he realized he wasnt lost after all and was exactly where destiny intended him to be.

Soon afterwards Wanderer Bracelets was born, creating a reliable source of income for these incredibly talented Balinese. Each bracelet serves as reminders to embrace what you value most - the people and the places you encounter on the path of life.

SPARKS
CREATIVITY

Historically, the Balinese are known as skilled painters, carvers, weavers, musicians, and dancers (amongst many other things). Every time artisans carve a bracelet, they preserve the artistic traditions passed down from the generations before them. In fact, since art is so infused into the everyday life of the Balinese culture, there were no words to describe art or artists until Westerners arrived to the island. Its a privilege to provide work that honors this unique, artistic legacy.

COMMUNITY

Four in five Wanderer artisans work from home in the company of family and friends. This allows them to take part in every aspect of daily village life - especially important since 70% of them are women, and many have young children.
