Enjoy a carefully curated gift set filled with exquisite accessories from Thailand, thoughtfully selected by the NOVICA team. Faceted tourmaline beads in a rainbow of colors flanked by tiny beads of 24k gold-plated sterling silver breathe life into a fabulous necklace that steals the spotlight, closing with a gold-plated spring ring clasp. The generously sized dangle earrings are fashioned by stringing petite black and gold glass beads into a brass ring, creating a frame for a faceted glass bead that dangles freely in the center and makes a beautiful contrast with the gleaming sterling silver hooks. Keep the gorgeous accessories in the stylish and practical jewelry roll crafted from a blend of silk and rayon made from bamboo, detailed with printed floral motifs over a brown body and opening with a tie closure revealing a lined interior that is outfitted with three zippered pockets and a padded ring bar.

This necklace by Thailand's Saranarat accessorizes with surreal elegance. The long 24k gold plated sterling silver chain links the exotic freeform beauty of light pink baroque pearls with white oval button pearls. Saranarat adds iolite and green garnet to create a necklace of harmonious contrasts. The necklace is long enough to wrap twice around the neck if desired.

A smiling novice monk carries his alms bowl with him as he travels from place to place in this charming sculpture from Ning Charoensri. Thai artisans craft the sculpture from durable brass, paying special attention to the folds in the monk's robe, then hand paint the robe in a rich brown color.

Prathin depicts the magnificence of the Subhannahong, or "Golden Swan Ship," the ship belonging to the actual King of Thailand. In olden days, whenever a Thai king wished to travel on a barge, he would be escorted by a procession of up to 100 ships in a procession called Phayuha Yatra. The ships would fall into a war-like formation to ensure the king's safety. Today, the King of Thailand travels on the Subhannahong when he takes offerings to the monks at the royal temple; according to popular belief, it is a sign of good luck to be able to see the king in his royal barge.

The artisan works in the traditional lacquer techniques of Northern Thailand and the images are meticulously etched by hand.
