"Wise Choice!"

My friend who also buys from Novice showed me this ring she ordered and I loved the look and detail and the brilliance of the stone that I asked her if she minded if I copied her and got one for myself and she said she didnt mind. They didnt have my size 7 at the time, but after speaking with the Novice representative they contacted the artisan and asked if it could be done and he agreed! I wear it on my first finger as a cocktail style ring and it is gorgeous. The detail of the feathers and eyes are wonderful. This is no cheap piece of silver, this is heavy and strong and definitely worth the money spent. I think it is a great piece for both men and women and if you love owls you will love it, it is so unique. I dont think of it as worried owl though, I think of it as Wise Owl since this was a great choice for both my friend and I as presents to ourselves Highly recommend this artisan as I have bought other pieces from him as well and love them all!

"My Perfect Ring"

I know that it is all about me. My perfect ring. My precious. It is a) silver, b) embossed with owls, and c) Amethyst. It came to me on my birthday. My precious ring. It is sized true, feels wonderful on my hand, and has inspired a friend to lust after one of her own. This one is mine. My precious.

"Why Is This Splendid Owl Worried?"

The two owls, one on each side of the large and lovely stone, are simply beautiful. They dont look worried at all, though the name of the ring is The Worried Owl. It was a gift for my daughter, and she was delighted by it. She wears a lot of rings, and claimed this is her very favorite. I agree with her. I only wear one ring, ever, but this would tempt me, too.The size is perfect, and it could not be better. I have noticed that everything from NOVICA is perfect, every time. Thanks!You may hug the artisan for me in gratitude...

"Worried Owl Ring Has Tayored Look"

Agree with other reviews that the detailed owl is well made, beautiful. No need to worry ordering this ring if you want a ring to wear with a conservative pantsuit or tailored outfit.

"Most fulfilling purchase ever - my milestone gift"

You can travel to a country & stumble upon an artisan, embark in conversation, observe one of a kind work, purchase a piece, watch it wrapped carefully to take home with you. Or you can shop Novica without the travel and chance knowing you are helping hand-picked, vetted families of gifted artisans. I ordered the Worried Owl ring in a size 8 as I like to wear my special rings on my middle or forefinger. The picture on Novica does absolutely no justice to this piece. I chose the owl because it has deep family history for me and because recently I took a new job where the mascot is an owl. The stone is a deep purple with flashes of pink, lavender, blue, and red. The silver is overwhelming (in a good way), so substantial, so intricately carved. This is a ring worthy of such a title as a milestone ring, could be a class ring even. The packaging was immaculate, embroidered box, colorful hand-authored postcard from the artisans, lore booklet bill of sale, even Bali-stamp on the FedEx box.

"These are so cute!"

And octopus is an interesting sea creature. I love the way these earrings are done. They look very decorative and pretty and then when you look closely you see that it is an octopus! They are great for wearing on a cruise or a tropical trip or a to pool party, or anytime you feel like putting on some of your beach jewelry for a fun day out!

"Thank you Nyoman"

Very nicely detailed foliage. It flows smoothly around the ring. Very unique. I do not need to worry about the ring being caught on anything such as clothing. Great design. Thank you

"Interesting design"

Found this design to be really interesting, as a metal artist myself I really appreciate the work that went into the design. It would perhaps work best as a pointer finger or maybe thumb ring because you can feel the coral shaped silver on your adjacent fingers. I would love to see some tiny sparkling stone set into a few of the holes perhaps. Many people have stopped me and asked to see the ring up close, I tell them it is available from Nyoman Rena on Novica! Its listed as a mens ring but as a woman I really enjoy the unusual design and enjoy wearing it, though in all fairness it is usually men who ask to see it up close and seem drawn to it more than woman when I wear it.
