On a mission to combat poverty in her small village and create opportunities for women in her community, Guatemalan artisan Mirian Zet dedicates herself to creating beaded jewelry as a means of income and generating employment for others around her. Growing up on the shores of breathtaking Lake Atitlan, Mirian took inspiration from the wildlife and forest that blankets the Guatemalan highlands. Turning her love of nature into art, Mirian crafts these extravagant waterfall earrings inspired by the striking macaws that soar through the pure mountain air, utilizing red, yellow, black and white glass beads on sterling silver hooks.

Thailand’s national animal steals the spotlight in this elephant-themed gift set curated with care by the NOVICA team. The iconic pachyderm adorns a royal-looking cotton shoulder bag with a strap that can be conveniently adjusted by retying the knot at the desired length, a fully lined interior with a zippered pocket and a lovely coconut shell button closure. The delightful charm necklace hosts brass and blue calcite orbs, jingling bells and playful elephants, all knotted by hand on a brown cord. Finally, the adorable ceramic elephant statuette is expertly hand-painted with a wondrous pattern of classic flowers in a palette of blue and white hues for an ethereal look.

Cascading blue, salmon and gold glass beads come together to create a net that supports dangling blue crystal beads in this striking waterfall necklace that is a true eye-catcher. The color combination, original design and crafting skills of Guatemalan artisan Mirian Zet are what make it a timeless statement necklace.

An earthy melange of colors distinguishes these waterfall earrings from Thailand's Somluck Komolmith. The earrings are crafted by hand from sterling silver and adorned with green jade and colorful quartz rings.

Proud of her country and inspired by its traditional textiles, Guatemalan artisan Mirian Zet handcrafts a lovely accessory from glass beads. Choosing a geometric design, the artist creates these waterfall earrings equipped with sterling silver hooks and enhanced by a white hue that symbolizes purity.
