Bethanne
Library work / art, jewelry-making, nature, music
Hello- my name is Bethanne, and I'm a 26 year old living in the Chicago area. I studied art and art history in college, and enjoy learning about other countries and cultures through the arts. I am passionate about fair trade, protecting the environment, and the welfare of animals. I like to read, write, travel, and experiment in jewelry-making when I feel inspired.
What I like most about Novica:
What I like most about Novica is knowing that every purchase supports artists and craftspeople around the world. Every piece is well-made, beautiful, and unlike anything that could be bought in a department store. I am so happy and proud to help sustain the traditions and arts of the countries and artists that participate in Novica, even if only in a small way.

Testimonial for Wayan Sarjana
The Fire and Courage ring by Wayan is so strongly designed and intricately detailed- a true piece of craftsmanship. I will be proud to wear it- it's so unique and beautiful.
Testimonial for Desak Nyoman Parwati
The Blue Orchid robe created by Desak is so elegantly designed, and the colors so saturated and shimmering. I love to put it on each day.
Testimonial for Mohammed Javed Ahmed
I just received Mr. Ahmed's gorgeous silk scarf, Luminous Sun. It's name couldn't be more appropriate- it shimmers with a beautiful, fiery gold when moved under the light. He is truly a talented artist. I will be proud to wear it.
Testimonial for Neeru Goel
The jewelry by Neeru showcased by Novica is among the most amazing jewelry I've ever seen. The Peaceful Sky necklace and earring set that she created is beyond anything I could've imagined- I love it. Thank you a thousand times for sharing your talent with the world.
Testimonial for Ines Martire
The Baroque Violet wristwatch that I received from Ines is so beautiful. The stones just shimmer, and it is both elegant and unique. I will be proud to put it on each day.
