“At the deepest essence of our philosophy, we want to create a bridge between you and the many talented artisans across the globe.”

As many of you may know, a devastating earthquake hit Peru on Wednesday, August 15th, and they experienced another one on Friday. I have received an email indicating the employees and families of that NOVICA office are safe but there is much structural damage and they are trying to locate several artists who lived near the epicenter. In the spirit of lending a helping hand, 10% of the purchase price of items from Novica Andes will be donated directly to affected artisans as well as to UNICEF’s relief work in Peru. So if you feel inclined to purchase something, now would be a great time!

Thanks for caring!
