"A beautiful addition to my elephant collection"

My father (age 93) recently handed down a large elephant collection to me, which my grandfather had started. In the top row of my main display case are several pieces that have a mother and child elephant. I have added the Charm of Chinar pair that you designed to that top row. It is so beautiful and I absolutely love it, especially when I turn the lights on in the case. Thank you, Sajad!!

"Perfectly wonderful"

I needed something to complete my outfit when I went for a celebration dinner. It was a casual event, but I missed something to dress up my outfit just a little for this occasion. This scarf is so pretty. the color is beautiful, and the feel is so soft. It added just the right elegance I needed. Thank you, Sajad, and thank you Novica for bringing it to me.

"OMG ABSOLUTE ARTISAN PERFECTION"

AS SOON AS THIS MASTERPIECE ARRIVED TODAY IN THE MAIL, I RUSHED TO MY COMPTUER TO WRITE A REVIEW. THIS FABULOUS WOOL CAPE STUNNED. IT WAS SOFT ENOUGH FOR AN INFANT. YET, IF POSSIBLE, MORE COMPELLING IS THE EXQUISITE EMBROIDERY. THE FINEST THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN. BREATHTAKING COLORS LEAP OFF THE BLACK BACKGROUND. I POSSESS MANY CAPES, WRAPS, AND RUANAS YET NONE SO FINE AS THIS. I AM AFRAID TO WEAR IT UNSURE IF I CAN DO IT JUSTICE. YOU ARE A MASTER. I HONOR YOUR SKILL. IN GRATITUDE, DR. MELISSA

"Beautiful in Every Way"

This handcrafted box shows great attention to detail. It is finely made and the decoration is most pleasing. I value it and appreciate that it shows the hand of the maker.
