About Novica Jewelry
We started Novica with a dream to create a better world for artisans, because a better world for artisans is a better world for all.
Along the way, we discovered something very important - as artisans around the world succeeded, there was also a visible and profound impact on the communities around them.
Your purchases are that powerful.
They directly and indirectly provide for education, help with health care, fund basic needs, support children, preserve disappearing arts, and of course, spread happiness around the world.
Our vision of the future is not one of mega factories producing cookie cutter products for all to cheaply consume. We reject that future!
Instead, we see a bright future that celebrates artisans who take the time to create an item by hand.
A future where time is protected, where stories are told, where unique details are honored. Love, respect, inclusiveness become our drivers.
We see an open-minded world that builds deeper bonds across nations, religions, and communities, forging cultural understanding, mutual respect and admiration. Are you in?
Join us as we forge a new path together. Let's create a better world!

Handblown Glass Blue and Green Humminbird Figurine, "Trochilinae Hummingbird"
Information
Â
With ribbons of blue and green swirling through his wings and body, this little hummingbird is simply beautiful. Elena Herrera of Costa Rica handcrafts this blown glass figurine and adds colorful details with glass paint. Gold thread is attached to a glass loop at the top of the hummingbird's back for easy hanging.
The very nature of hand-blown glass artistry implies the possibility of miniscule air bubbles and/or slight imperfections. This is part of the charm of this art form, since it ensures that no two pieces will ever be identical.
