"Fantastic!"





We worked in Indonesia for a year and fell in love with the culture and artistry. So many happy memories. We still keep in touch with our Buddhist friends we met in Cilegon. The only frustration was, how to brining some amazing hand-made treasures back to the US? NOVICA is doing very important work. The items were delivered very promptly. The packaging was amazing. I purchased this Lotus Ring to incorporate into the architecture of my new house, and it is a perfect fit for this purpose. The Lotus flower is profound symbol in Buddhism. This wood cut is an excellent representation. The wood is nice and thick and strong. The carving is beautiful. A real work of art. Thank you!
