"Love my lucky dragonfly!"
I have purchased two of these now - the artwork and carvings are amazingly beautiful, such detail. I have one and I gave my sister-in-law one (who has cancer) one - she loves dragonflies and it really brightened her days. Thank you so much - they are making us smile everyday!

"Birthday Gift"
I have not yet given this gift as it is a birthday gift to be given in the month of December. I can absolutely say that I purchase many of the gifts through NOVICA and each and every one is a treasure.

"Fish out of water!"
This smiling fish is absolutely adorable. It is small, so keep that in mind. i just love looking at her (of course shes a female!) She has a companion, the Grey Fish (a man-fish), also from Novica. My husband is a Pisces, too, so it fits into my whimsical design. Beautiful!
