There were no factories when the metal smiths of Bali began to practice their craft. Prapen has worked closely with small families in the village of Celuk, each working in the comfort of their home workshops. Their skills spread through generations and within the neighborhoods of the village. Our workshop is a replica of a Balinese home workshop. We did not build a large factory as we wished to maintain the concept of a specialized craft village. The simple workshops in each house are distinctive features of the village, with the sounds of the hammers and files as a part of the ambience.
