Why I like NOVICA
the items offered for sale are outstanding. I like that Novica is fair trade and generated by the artisans. They are not left out of the picture! I like knowing who made the item I uprchased.

Testimonial For Sushila
I ordered a shawl from Sushila and waited anxiously for it's arrival. Would it be all I hoped for? This was to be a gift for someone special. When it arrived, the quality and beauty overwhelmed me. What a truly lovely gift! I especially loved reading about Sushila and her pride in her craft. She also included an extra tiny gift--for me! I loved it, and recommend her work highly! Thank you so much for a wonderful gift!
Sushila's art has been featured on Oxygen TV and in Faith and Family magazine.

Testimonial For Harish Kathuria
Mr. Kathuria,
It is obvious that you take pride in and care with the lovely jewelry you create. The necklace and bracelet I ordered are so stunning that they will be the perfect gifts for my retiring colleague. I am sure you are a fine mechanical engineer, but I'm so happy you chose to be a jewelry artisan instead! Thank you so much. I love NOVICA!
