"Brightened someone's day"

I sent this delightful figurine to a good friend as a gift. She called me right away when she received it and said she had been having a particularly challenging day. But recognizing how much love had gone into both crafting and sending the piece, her mood instantly lifted. The talented artist was truly inspired in creating this joyful creature.

"Not what I expected"

I know every carving is different and not going match the picture.But the one I got was painted solid, cant see any grain. And it feels light and plastic. I was expecting a bit heavier and I did weight it and it was only about 0.1LB lighter than the listed weight.This is first item I ever returned with probably 30+ orders.I did have to say overall the price on Novica is getting a little out the hand, the full price must have gone up 25-50% over the last 3-4 years. Not sure all that increase benefits the artisans or the Novica staff...

"Side table"

I love this piece and am using next to an accent chair. It is a bit lower than I would like and would not hold a lot but is enough for my purposes. Makes for a great conversation piece.
