    Story Behind the Art:
    Putu Oka Mahendra was born in the Tabanan regency of Bali. His mother, Tantri, pioneered ceramic artistry in 1980. She was a woman full of energy and highly self-confident. When she first started she undertook the entire crafting procedure by herself - from creating the design until finishing the product. She gradually developed a reputation for fine design and high quality and people started placing so many orders that she saw the need to hire assistants. In 1990, when Tantri passed away, Oka Mahendra took-over her work, and eventually opened a showroom in her memory.

Novica
Since 1999, Novica has been connecting artisans around the world by providing them with a network to sell their fine products, often handmade, in regional marketplaces and online. This revolutionary company, whose name comes from the Latin word novus, meaning new, has partnered with National Geographic to create a fair-trade program that benefits artists in a variety of countries. Each artisan can set prices for their products and change them at will, and there are no fees for listing items on Novica's website. This allows the artisans to remain independent and make the most money from their items, whether they sell Novica home decor pieces or craft beautiful canvases sold in the Novica art gallery. Support global artisans when you purchase products for both inside and outside your home, including Novica patio furniture and Novica kitchen linens and decor. You may also learn more about the person who makes your favorite items and the places where they are made.
Sustain Novica's extraordinary fair-trade program when you buy dishes and serveware for your dining table. Novica dinnerware is made of quality materials, including ceramic, porcelain and stoneware, and many plates and bowls feature vibrant colors and exotic patterns that can dress up any kitchen. You'll also want to check out Novica glasses and barware to complement your dinnerware and fit your lifestyle. Look for stunning hand-blown glass goblets you can serve water or fresh lemonade in and be sure to check out the selection of boldly colored shot glasses for your home bar.
No home would be complete without Novica serveware, either. A hand-painted ceramic soup tureen will look great in any kitchen, and a blown-glass pitcher adds an elegant touch to an outdoor party. Impress guests with Novica garden decor, including beautiful iron welcome signs and charming ceramic flowerpots. Novica jewelry also makes a wonderful gift for friends and family, especially handmade Novica bracelets and necklaces.
Because of its partnership with National Geographic, Novica is able to present beautiful images of individual artisans, their products and the places in which they live to customers all over the world. Take advantage of this program and buy unique items from Novica for your home. One purchase will support an artisan's efforts and allow him to continue producing quality products in his homeland.

    • Cute but not practical

      This tea pot was given as a gift. She loved it, it is adorable, but when she used it for the first time found out it was not practical. The tea poured all over the place and the ceramic pot should not or cannot (depending on who you ask) be placed on direct heat. Also the pot was very small. This seems more like decoration than anything. Returned and O.Co was fantastic as always.

      i haven't used my teapot for water yet, it is really just on display in a corner shelving area of my new cabinetry - just love the little guy.

    • Beautiful craft piece!

      I collect teapots and am always on the lookout for something different. This pottery turtle is as cute as it is in the picture. It is not large, but enough to brew a mug and a half of tea. It looks handmade and has a good heft. The handle is sturdy. The only thing is that, because it is from Asia, I am unsure whether it has passed saftey standards with regard to lead in the clay or stain, which is always a concern about any imported pottery item that may be used for food. Perhaps "O" can clarify this for all of us, because this turtle is darn cute! My grandkids will love to have their tea in it...once I find out about its safety.

      It arrived very quickly and was in perfect shape, no cracks, chips, etc. The colors are very good and look like the picture. I love it!

    • Turtle Teapot

      I bought this turtle teapot as a git & it was pretty cute! My friend, who loves turtles & tea, loved it! It took a little bit longer than normal to have it shipped, so you will have to wait 2 weeks before receiving it. The description does say that you can use it to make tea in, but it looks to be more decorative.

    • picture perfect

      When I received the tea pot I was very excited to see it looked just like the picture, the only downside was it was a bit smaller than I had thought it would be. It is such a unique design and very well made, but if you're looking for a tea pot that serves multiple people at once this may not be the most ideal.
