Over $89.4 million sent to artisans so far!
The sun rises with the splendor of hill tribe artistry in the beautiful design if this ring. From Thailand's Achara, it is masterfully crafted by hand with sterling silver.
.925 Sterling silver
Achara is not only a talented artisan she is also a kind, dedicated businesswoman. Her workshop has 25 full-time employees and she hires hundreds of part-time silversmiths. Her part time employees are hill tribe artisans who struggle to survive. To ensure that these artisans have enough income to live on; Achara continually orders and pays in advance for their silverwork. She does this even though she may have no orders for their work at the time. She is able to do this because of her Novica customers who provide a stable, steady income for her workshop.
Achara's workshop uses traditional silversmithing techniques to produce centuries old designs as well as contemporary pieces inspired Thai culture. Many artisans are trained in her workshop. They learn not only traditional jewelry making but also how to apply modern quality control standards.
Achara's children are of university age. She currently pays for her daughter's higher education and next year she will also pay for her son's.
The Women's Empowerment badge is awarded to female artisans or artisan groups that are led by women.

I absolutely love this. It is eye-catching and unique. Only wish I could have ordered it in a size 10 so that it would also fit on my middle finger. However, it fits comfortably on my ring finger and looks good there, too.

A true sterling silver must have!! It's the piece that captures others eyes and leads to conversation. With larger rings, I wear, they tend to move around my finger but this novica jewel it hugs my finger like it was made just for me. The back, if needed, can be pulled apart slightly if more room is needed to fit your finger. The artistry of this ring is detailed and unique, and I luv it. Very well made n sturdy piece of jewelry, well worth the money. Thumbs up to the artist, it's a beauty, thank you!!!!
