Testimonial For Wayan Sarjana
The carnelian ring I purchased was displayed as a "men's" ring but it it suitable for a lady as well. Simple elegance, beautifully wrought. I love it.

I just received the bronze frog and cart. I could not love it more. It is a delight in every way.

Testimonial For Seguso Family
I ordered a vase because I liked the color (blue) but I was a little worried that it was square, when round is more common. I was surprised -- and delighted -- to find that tall flowers, like irises, fall into a more pleasing arrangement in a square vase. I got so many compliments that I oredered two more as gifts. The glass is stunning and I would recommend this artist with mucho enthusiasm!
