Falcons Are Favorites
Son lives in mountains and falcons are frequent flyers there. Against the background of Pike's Peak, the predatory birds soar over the open fields looking for prey. Once a ground squirrel is spotted, the falcon circles ever lower until the final descent to clinch the hapless animal with its powerful talons. The entire hunt may take just a few seconds, but to observers it's almost balletic and so graceful to behold. My son never tires of watching this spectacle, and I gave him the falcon necklace to remind him of the power and beauty of Nature's forces.

Beautiful craftsmanship!
This kind of master handcrafting is so beautiful but difficult to find in the USA. I was especially touched by M. Ayub?s write up about the Kashmir Valley and how he learned his craft which was historically passed from one generation to the next but attracts fewer and fewer artisans these days. The box is beautifully detailed and I feel fortunate to have stumbled across his work on Novica?s site. Thank you for sharing the gift of your artistic expression and craftsmanship with the world M. Ayub!
