Stunning!
When I took this jewelry box out of the packaging.... I was truly amazed at it's beauty. The craftmanship is superb and the combination of the black, silver, and colored stones is a match made in heaven! Aside from the fact that everything I buy from Novica is outstanding....I love the thought that these items are handmade as well. Plus, it's a great feeling knowing that you can give your support to all of these wonderful artisans. So glad I that I found Novica!
Stunning, though pinker than picture
The pictures of this item make it look like a color intermediate between purple and pink, however in person, under natural light, I would describe it as being redder/pinker and I would probably describe the color scheme as just pink, maybe with hints of purple. The top panel also looks white in natural light. As purple is my favorite color I'm a little bit disappointed in that, and yet despite that, it is really amazing work. Had I known what it would look like in natural light, it's possible that I'd have gone for "Cajamarca Splendor" by the same artists, which is a bold combination of secondary colors including purple. However, regardless, I am very happy that I have one of these cabinets, and this color scheme would have been one of my top two finalists for which one I wanted, regardless. I am very happy to have it; it is such a neat piece, and I am amazed that when you consider how much it would cost to ship this much glass from the Andes, they can offer it at this price.
