I got this for my anniversary gift and I just love everything about it! I have worn it multiple times and have received compliments every time.
Buana's beautiful piece of jewelry is sure to bring me years of enjoyment. I hope to buy another of his pieces soon.
What wonderful workmanship. I seem to have a thing for moons, crescent moons and faces. How lucky for me, I found all in one stunning piece. Highly recommend.
This is a stunning piece of wearable artwork. People comment on it every time I put it on. The workmanship is amazing. It looks fabulous, it feels fabulous...so cool and smooth. I love it! I have several pieces from this artist and can't wait to see what he'll create next!
For me this necklace captures the romance and magic of the moon. I love the feeling it gives me, love the weight and length of the chain, love the detailing of the pendant, love the silver antiquing. I could not be happier with my purchase!
I love this pendant, very well made. According to astrology, I am Cancer, also called moonchild. So this is the perfect pendant for me.The detail in the work is beautiful! Your love for art stands out in this and all your pieces. Thank you Buana
Being new to Novica I ordered with caution, but I will not hesitate to order again!
The pendant is exquisite! I appreciate the attention to detail. "Moon Romancing" has a nice solid weight and the carving is securely set into a bezel with no room for play. This is one of those items that will take continuous wear (which I am guilty of doing) in stride. The chain is beautiful with soldered links: even the clasp is soldered to prevent stretching and breakage.
Buana your pendant is flawless and I will most certainly be a repeat customer. Thank You!

Pendant and chain for everyday wearSilver moon carved
I couldn't believe the "serene and peaceful" expression Buana carved into the faces of this necklace! I love everything about it. The silver setting is beautiful too. It takes amazing talent to carve such realistic expression. Awesome when you see the real thing! I actually bought another for my daughter!
The moon faces are so expressive and the silver work is finely detailed and beautifully finished. Truly a piece of art and even better than pictured. This will definitely be a treasured favourite. Order process and shipping was flawless.

Perfect for everyday wear or dress it up.Beautiful Romantic
I like the necklace a lot. However, the back is open, and I wish it had been finished out somehow so that the back wasn't hollowed out. I think that takes away from the beauty of this necklace. If it accidentally gets turned around when you are wearing it, it looks strange and unfinished.
Beautiful craftsmanship. Attention to detail. I love wearing this. Buana is a true artist! Setting is very nice. High quality, especially for the price. I look forward to seeing more of his work :)
The design looks so delicate and well made that it makes it look like a beautiful piece of art. I love Buana's work and this is my third piece of jewelry I get from him. Looking forward to add more to my collection. Thank you!!!
The carving and the bail on this are wonderfully done. Hard to believe it is not plastic, the work is so smooth. The chain is a great longer length, at 19 inches. There should be a side photo so the base's design can be seen (it does not look like the bail, are very simple sqiggles).
"I am thankful to God for giving me such a great gift so I can make a living for my family. Not much, perhaps, but enough for our simple way of life."
Like most people who were born and live in Gianyar Regency, Buana has been surrounded by handicrafts since he was a child. Gianyar is a part of Bali known throughout the world for its beautiful landscapes and exceptional artistic legacy. Handicrafts like shadow puppets made of cowhide, woodcarving and silver jewelry are created there in towns like Tegalalang, Ubud, Sukawati and Celuk.
In 1990, Buana decided to learn to craft silver jewelry from a friend in Celuk. He learned it all, from the very basic skills like sanding, polishing and making plates to very advanced techniques. Supported by his family, Buana has continued his profession as a silversmith. "I am thankful to God for giving me such a great gift so I can make a living for my family. Not much, perhaps, but enough for our simple way of life," he says. "Hopefully through Novica I can offer a better future to my wife and two children."
I love Novica and Buana exemplifies the ideal Novica artist. His style, attention to detail, imagination and artistry are both exotic and appealing. I haven't acquired a singe item from him that I don't love and I plan to continue augmenting my wife's collection with his items for years to come.

Unique pendant. Smaller than I thought. I wish the face had been clamped instead of glued to base. Chain is sturdy and a good length. Amethyst is very small. Difficult to see.
Buana has a wonderful talent for working with bone. The faces he creates are so expressive and are combined with all the other elements beautifully. I love my 'Sleepy Moon' necklace.
