Authentic Bali silver should be stamped with a "925" hallmark indicating 92.5% pure sterling silver content. When sourcing from Bali Silver Export, you can verify quality through: (1) physical hallmarking on every piece; (2) available third-party assay or certification on request; (3) pre-shipment photo and video inspection of your order; and (4) sample orders before committing to bulk wholesale quantities. We operate a strict quality control process at our Celuk workshop before any order is packed for export.

All products from Bali Silver Export are manufactured from solid 925 sterling silver. We do not use silver plating, silver-filled, or base metal with silver coating. Every piece carries the 925 hallmark as standard. This distinction is critical for international buyers, particularly in regulated markets like the US, EU, and Australia, where misrepresentation of metal content in jewelry is a legal violation.

Bali silver jewelry is distinguished by its handcrafted production — each piece is individually made by a trained Balinese silversmith using traditional techniques including granulation (tiny silver balls fused to the surface), filigree (twisted wire work), and hand-stamping. No two pieces are exactly alike. This handmade character, cultural heritage, and use of solid 925 sterling silver gives Bali silver jewelry a premium value proposition that mass-produced factory silver from major manufacturing hubs simply cannot replicate.

Absolutely. We encourage sample orders so you can evaluate our craftsmanship, finish, and 925 quality first-hand. Samples are charged at wholesale price plus shipping, and the sample cost is credited toward your first bulk order.

For jewelry specifically, DHL Express and FedEx International are the most recommended carriers for shipping from Indonesia (Bali) to the US. Both offer: full shipment tracking, customs pre-clearance support, insurance options, and fast 3–5 day transit times. EMS (Indonesia Post) is a lower-cost option for smaller orders but has longer transit times and less reliable tracking. For large bulk wholesale shipments, sea freight via a freight forwarder is the most cost-effective option.

For large bulk silver orders from Bali, established freight forwarders include DHL Global Forwarding, Kuehne+Nagel, Agility Logistics, and local Bali-based export agents. Bali Silver Export can facilitate the export documentation and work with your nominated freight forwarder, or recommend trusted partners for first-time importers unfamiliar with Indonesia–US logistics.

However, for commercial wholesale imports above USD $2,500, you will need a US Customs Bond and are strongly advised to use a licensed customs broker to ensure correct HTS classification and duty payment. For retail-level orders under USD $800, the de minimis threshold means no customs filing is required.

Indonesian silver jewelry exporters are required to hold proper business licensing (NIB/SIUP) and comply with Indonesia's Ministry of Trade export regulations. For precious metal goods including silver, Indonesia requires an export approval letter from the Ministry of Trade under Regulation 46/M-DAG/PER/7/2012.
