Leluhur Dangle Earring (Single)

The Essence of Leluhur Earrings

Material: Sterling Silver 925 & Pamor Wos Wutah

The Leluhur Earrings from Lievik Atelier’s Archeologist Collection are a tribute to ancestral wisdom, spiritual lineage, and the unbroken connection between past and present. In Nusantara’s indigenous beliefs, leluhur (ancestors) are not merely figures of the past but guiding spirits who continue to shape the lives of their descendants. Ancestral reverence is deeply rooted in Balinese Hinduism, Javanese Kejawen, and indigenous Austronesian traditions, where honoring the leluhur ensures blessings, protection, and harmony with the natural and spiritual worlds.

In Javanese and Sundanese traditions, rituals honoring the leluhur are often performed during the rice harvest, recognizing the wisdom passed down from those who cultivated the land before us. The Wos Wutah Pamor—which translates to “scattered rice grains”—represents the gifts of the ancestors, ensuring that their legacy continues to nourish future generations. Just as rice is planted, grows, and is harvested in cycles, so too does ancestral wisdom flow through time.

The organic form of the Leluhur Earrings reflects the dancing shadow-unseen yet ever-present nature of ancestral guidance, shaped by the belief that we are never truly separate from those who came before us.

Wearing the Leluhur Earrings is a symbolic act of remembrance—a connection to the wisdom, protection, and blessings of the ancestors, carried forward into the future.
