s soon as the first sliver of the new Moon appears in the sky, the Balinese bow their heads and allow their minds to contemplate the glimmering night in search of answers to age-old philosophical questions.
Just as how ancient Greek poets personified the Moon through the Goddess Selene, the orb is incarnated in Balinese mythological life and culture.
The full Moon brings the Balinese’s brightest time, where the God Chandra is believed to sprinkle his blessings with lunar light. This spirit is translated into the full-moon shaped, ethically sourced gemstones from John Hardy’s Moon Door collection, encompassing the magic of lunar renewal with their 18-carat gold twists and turns.
Whether the moonlight smiles like the Cheshire cat or it hides half its face away, this jawan-and-dot-accented collection recognizes the lunar cycle’s parallels to human life.
An homage to Balinese heritage rooted in artisanship, John Hardy’s six-day hand-crafted pendants offer a celestial portal to lie against your skin. Whatever your birthstone, the collection provides a gleaming option that embodies the beauty and mystery of our celestial twin.
Hanging gently on your person and suggesting a soft, pale light, Moon Door’s mixed metals will accentuate the celestial being that you are. With a Moon that you can carry around, you can seize new beginnings in your life and philosophy.
