My sweetheart loves her gifts from Novica artisans. We feel good about our support for these artists and craftsmen (and women). It was exactly as portrayed and received in a reasonable time.
It's soooo soft :D More of an olive green than peridot in person but it has the lovely woven pattern which the images don't do justice for. Very light weight and cool.
I got this scarf as a Christmas present for my son. It is beautiful, soft, and masculine. The length will allow him to wear it more than one way. I think he will get a lot of warmth from this scarf.
