"What was received is not what is pictured"
I loved the look of this dragon, and had asked for it as an Xmas gift, but it was sold out. I was very excited when it came back in stock and ordered it for myself. What I really liked was the beautiful backward curve over the tail. What was received is a side facing dragon, which, while the colors are the same, is not in fact the same sculpture. I am extremely disappointed.

"Excellent Quality & Fair Price"
The piece I received was modestly different than the picture on the Novica. This is to be expected since each piece is cfrafted individually. Fine workmanship. I would definitely buy from these artists again.

"Wow! Such amazing detials!"
I knew as soon as I saw this treasure I had to buy it! -- Painted with the wisdom of turtles (just one symbolism for turtles). Now they also have available a blue bull with fish! So tempting! The painting details and carving of the bull are just incredible. Perfection! I am always in awe when I receive these pieces from Zeny and Reyna. So happy to see that more of their artworks are available here on Novica.
