Product Description
NOVICA, in association with National Geographic, offers thousands of limited edition and one-of-a-kind gifts, jewelry, and home decor treasures handmade by master artists and artisans throughout the world. Like lightning, streaks of silver shoot across rippling colors in a beautiful design. Luiz Antonio Dias creates a hair clip with mesmerizing pools of enamel. .900 rating silver. Artisan Info: "I started designing and crafting silver jewelry at the beginning of the 1980s so I could pay my university tuition I was studying mechanical engineering. I became so involved in this activity that I ended up dropping out and working full time as a jeweler. I began selling my wares at local art fairs in various coastal cities. "Eventually I developed an original technique to work with enamel at low temperatures with polyester resin, the same material used for making synthetic gems. I was enthralled by the colorful transparency of the pieces, and how the combination of colors resulted in a psychedelic illusion. "I have been refining this technique over the last 20 years and in so doing, I have designed several jewelry collections that go from silver jewelry items to religious articles, especially Hebrew. "We're lacking in telecommunications in the area where I live. I have always sold my products directly to the customer, never through shops. I see in Novica a way to display jewelry items originating from Brazil's Atlantic forests to the rest of the world."
