gifts for bird lovers

According to Guatemalan custom, the adorable yet powerful worry dolls, or quitapenas, better the fortune of those experiencing problems if you place them under your pillow and tell them about what troubles you. This colorful gift set curated by the NOVICA team is inspired by these iconic dolls, featuring a delightful set of 12 figurines, a vibrant magnet and a lovely wreath, all woven by hand from cotton and ready to infuse your surroundings with tradition and charm.

Let your spirit fly away with the majestic freedom of the hummingbird, the star of this gift set from Guatemala curated by the NOVICA team. Handcrafted in ceramic at high temperatures, this sweet family of three petite hummingbirds is the perfect decoration for any interior, each expertly painted by hand in vibrant colors. The awe-inspiring bird also graces a dazzling painting rendered in watercolor on recycled paper, boasting a maguey fiber cord to display it in your favorite spot. The hummingbird motif goes beyond home decor to take with you everywhere you go thanks to the stunning pendant necklace, where the figure of this lovely creature is intricately etched on a natural dark green jade stone that hangs from an adjustable black cotton cord.

Nature and jewelry lovers alike will find this Thai-crafted gift set, thoughtfully curated by the NOVICA team, simply impossible to resist. A pair of sweet birds perch on the edge of a pink ceramic lotus flower-shaped catchall, reminiscent of a birdbath and perfect for holding jewelry and other small valuables. Little leaves in a combination of pink and white hues add a unique tenderness to your style in these handblown glass dangle earrings, paying homage to nature with their stylized forms and equipped with sterling silver hooks. Also fashioned from blown glass, the gorgeous necklace showcases floral, leaf and abstract motifs in the three rings that make up the lovely pendant, swaying gracefully from a stainless steel snake chain.

Owls are magnificent creatures often related to knowledge and mystery. Their captivating appearance inspires the fabulous Balinese home accents featured in a lovely gift set curated by the NOVICA team. Embellished with hand-painted golden, white, black, blue and red details, a striking owl statuette is skillfully carved by hand from local crocodile wood. A wise and charming owl handcrafted from suar wood crowns a splendid decorative box that holds a secret: four pieces linked together like a puzzle allow you to hide personal treasures inside. A precious doorstop with a petite brown owl posing mysteriously as the centerpiece is hand-carved with precision from jempinis wood, serving both utilitarian and decorative purposes.

Treat your loved ones to the wonders of India with NOVICA's handpicked accessories, elegantly presented in a gift set that promises delight. Flowers blossom with ethereal grace in a shawl of sophisticated allure, exquisitely woven on a jacquard loom with authentic Banarasi silk and finished with delicate fringes on the edges. Bold paisley motifs in fuchsia, turquoise, scarlet and teal circumnavigate a gorgeous shoulder bag further embellished with leaf patterns in golden brocade, boasting a zippered closure and a fully lined interior revealing a zippered pocket. Finally, a decoupage journal with 48 pages of handmade paper features screen-printed motifs of lovely sparrows on the front and an antique postcard on the back, trimmed with olive green cotton and complete with a tie closure.
