My sweetheart loves her gifts from Novica artisans. We feel good about our support for these artists and craftsmen (and women). It was exactly as portrayed and received in a reasonable time.
I purchased this wrap to wear with a black dress to a wedding. I think it will look very elegant and offset gold jewelry well. It is lovely and a rich taupe...a hard color to find. The workmanship is superb, and I will wear it for years--both for dressy and sporty events.
I purchased four of these beautiful blankets for my bridesmaids. The colors were exactly as pictured and they are quite large! Perfect blanket to cozy up with on the couch, and going to a good cause. They are natural wool so they are very warm but not as soft as polyester fibers so be aware when purchasing.
