"WOW!"

These earrings were my first Novica purchase. To the artist: I LOVE your work! From the entire website collection of earrings, your design caught my eye first and stayed with me until I placed my order. Now that they have arrived, I admire the beautiful design and superb workmanship. I expect to buy more of your pieces. To Novica: I am totally impressed with this shopping experience! The gift bag w/the metal Novica tag is classy and the quality enclosure describing the work makes the package very gift ready. I love that you make it possible to confidently and safely purchase jewelry from artists around the world!

"Unique Design"

Beautiful craftmanship and high quality silver. The earrings have medium weight to know it is there. I paired it with the Mayan Queen dark green jade necklace. Oh My! It was breathtaking!

"Lovely!"

I am just delighted with these half moon earrings. They are so unique and I m surprised to find out that the design is based on 19th century illustrations, which makes them all the more special! Receiving a handwritten card depicting the country of origin is such a special touch. I very much appreciate it!
