Absolutely! Jewelry is an art form that allows makers to express their individuality and cultural influences, and certain designs are used to represent important symbols. For example, Central American artisans incorporate traditional figures, glyphs, and pre-Hispanic folklore. In Mexico, the famous work of artists Angel Ortiz, Maria Belen Nilson, and Rosa Rojo highlight the beauty of Aztec, Mayan and Teotihuacan civilizations. In Peru, powerful symbols, like the Andean chakana, are used to represent humanitys union with the cosmos. Indian artists are extremely tied to their faith and spirituality. Earring designs include chakra gemstones, motifs of Lord Ganesha, and other spiritual imagery. In Bali, the Om symbol is prevalent, as well as the mythological panther-like Barong image, which is seen as a protector spirit. Designs pulled from the natural world, like animal figures, feathers, plants, as well as stones, are used in almost every culture, which then infuses them with their own particular meanings.
Yes! We offer a wide selection of earrings that are made from eco-friendly materials. Cow bone, water buffalo horn, fabric, recycled paper, wood, palm leaf and coconut shells, just to name a few. Product descriptions always list materials used, so be sure to read about each product to discover how artisans are working to ensure sustainability and environmental consciousness.
There is no best when it comes to handmade earrings. However, certain materials lend themselves well to jewelry. Silver and gold, for example, are frequently used to make earrings because of their luster and shine. Each region puts its own unique touch on the art of earring-making. Most use some combination of silver, gold, gemstones, wooden or glass beads, and bones. Some regions, like West Africa, have found ways to introduce up-cycling into the jewelry-making process. Recycled plastic and paper beads, as well as coconut shells are commonly integrated into beautiful works of earring art. Whatever materials used, quality and safety are always our top priorities. Each pair of earrings is tested to ensure its safety. If you do have sensitive skin, you may consider rhodium plated earrings, as rhodium is completely hypoallergenic. You can always find all relevant information about materials in the product description.

These are even prettier in person. They are larger than I expected and the detail of the stones is beautiful.

These earrings are so lovely and elegant. They re long enough to make me feel dressed up and the slight sparkle from the tourmaline is just enough bling. They also feel very hip and go with just about anything I m wearing without feeling like they re competing for the attention. I ve now introduced several folks to Novica just because of these darling dangles.

An ancient form of jewelry, pierced earrings were widely used until the 1920s, when clip-ons became available, but later regained their popularity. In a number of cultures, girls have their ears pierced shortly after birth.
Today, earrings come in a wide range of styles, and tourmaline brings a vast array of colors to the jewelry collection. Known as the "rainbow gemstone," it is showcased in our tourmaline earring collection. The gemstone is radiant in silver hoop earrings. It emulates fruits and berries in charming dangle earrings and combines beautifully with other stones such as amethyst, opal and garnet jewelry.
Novica presents its Tourmaline Earrings Collection featuring elegant pieces of jewelry by expert artisans and silversmiths from around the world. Primarily hand-crafted from sterling silver, our earrings are adorned with distinctive arrangements of tourmaline. They are available in many styles such as dangle, cluster, drop, and chandelier.
