Sanggah Collection
The Pura Ulun Danu Temple, which inspired our Sanggah Collection, is one of Bali’s most important and beautiful temples. It sits on the shores of Lake Bratan and is dedicated to Dewi Danu, the goddess of water, lakes, and rivers. In Balinese culture, water is life—it’s essential for growing rice and supporting the island’s farming communities. Dewi Danu is seen as the protector of this life-giving water, and she plays a vital role in ensuring the land stays fertile and the people prosper.
The Ulun Danu Temple, dedicated to the goddess of water
The Pura Ulun Danu was built to honor Dewi Danu and to give thanks for the water that sustains Bali. Surrounded by the lake, the temple almost looks like it’s floating on the water, making it even more connected to the element it’s dedicated to. People from all over Bali come here to pray for balance, harmony, and blessings for their families and farms.
Dewi Danu represents purity, life, and renewal. She is a symbol of protection and the vital balance that keeps life flowing smoothly on the island. By dedicating the Sanggah Collection to her, we honor this powerful connection between water and life.
Sanggah, a now-classic piece
The Sanggah pendant was the very first medallion created by our designer, and over time, it has become iconic. Its timeless design, inspired by the spiritual essence of Bali, has grown into a symbol of harmony and protection. Each piece in the Sanggah Collection, from the pendant to the earrings and bracelets, reflects the purity and protective qualities of Dewi Danu and the Pura Ulun Danu Temple.
For those looking for something truly special, the Sanggah medallions can be pre-ordered in 18k gold, with the option to engrave a personal message or design on the back. This unique customization adds a deeply personal touch, making each piece not only a symbol of Bali’s spirit but also a meaningful keepsake.
Full Moon-Blessed Sanggah
Medallions
Like all pieces in the collection, every Sanggah medallion is blessed during a traditional full moon ceremony when production is complete. This sacred blessing imbues each piece with the spiritual energy of Bali, ensuring it carries the island’s protective and harmonious essence.
