"Beautify wedding gift"
I wanted a unique wedding gift and immediately thought of Novica. I fell in love with this beautiful mahogany and teak fruit bowl by artist Hugo Pena. And I was NOT disappointed. The bowl is even more stunning in person and the craftsmanship outstanding. Best of all, the bride and groom love their gift. Packaging was secure and shipping was very timely. I would recommend this artists work as a thoughtful one-of-a-kind gift or for personal use.
