A Design Like No Other

Wow. This is a very unique, feminine, delicate piece that is so lovely. The beautiful amazonite against the highly-polished silver is striking and delightful. The silver "branches" lie flat and comfortable because they are not fused but instead are held together with silver links. Thus they "drape" wonderfully down the neck and chest. The creator is a true artist; the flowing design of this piece is marvelous. You will not find other necklaces like this. Bravo!

Amazonite

Hypnotic blue amazonite is believed to bring luck to one's hopes and dreams. It is also believed to be the stone of artists, as evidenced in Novica's grand collection of amazonite artisan jewelry.

Alfredo Inga showcases amazonite in his designs, featured in his vast collection of filigree earrings. Alfredo was born in Catacos, Peru's "Filigree City" where he taught by friends when he was only 11 years old. He went to Israel on a scholarship, which he won as a prize in filigree contest. He was offered a teaching position there, but loves Peru too much to stay away.

Patricia Jara is so enchanted with the traditional arts of Peru, that she has traveled far and wide to experience regional art forms. Her collection of amazonite rings and pendant necklaces treasures the Inca's flair for geometric harmony as well as her individual sense of modern elegance.

Guena, who graduated as an accountant, confides he has more patience for art than for logic. Through art, he tells us, one experiences beauty to the maximum, as well as moments of spiritual freedom. Enchanted by amazonite, he transforms the gem into the lush leaves of gemstone tree sculptures.
