While there are always welcome evergreen gifts, Valentine’s Day gifts should be about friendship, love, and thoughtfully picked to show that special person your appreciation. Consequently, you want to give something that makes their heart sing. It should remind the person of you, and the valuable time you share. Such a gift, however, isn’t about being expensive or spending your last dime on it. On the contrary, it is about being personal, and unique in high quality, and craftsmanship. Furthermore, being affordable is very important so the recipient feels appreciated, not paid for whatever favors. Now, what can be more unique than artisan designed, hand-made jewelry, piece of clothing, or home décor? What can be more personal than such a piece picked with the taste, values, and style of the beloved person in mind? This post showcases some of my favorite artisan-made Novica gifts under $100 that are of family-heirloom quality that could become a person’s signature style items.

Mexican artist Gianluca Anzani‘s sterling silver drop earrings are very feminine-equally perfect for women with Romantic style as well as elegant Preppy Style.
Everyone Loves a Statement Designer Bag
Every woman loves a designer bag that is a statement piece. Individualists prefer unique artisan-made designer bags that don’t scream “this person is rich”. This Bohemian-style macramé 100% cotton handle handbag is right such, and a bargain at $57.99. India’s artisan Hardeep knots ivory-colored cotton in a mesh-pattern using traditional macramé techniques. The row of long fringe along the bottom makes the bag a statement piece.
People with a romantic, eclectic, Rock’n Roll or even punk-inspired taste may love the tulip embroidered tartan bag.

Tip: Unique pieces are what makes your signature style.
Minimalist Style Statement Pieces Are Like Love
The beauty of love is that you don’t need more, and don’t need less. Minimalist style follows this idea, not more than need, but what is needed. Because of their simple design, minimalist style pieces go with all kinds of style.
I love this minimalist-style wrap artisan made ring by Alok Jain because of the wrap’s circle-like shape. It gives the illusion that the gemstones want to reach each like friends do. A perfect Valentine’s day gift that goes with any style.
This ring is also available with peridots for $64.59.
Another minimalist, timeless piece celebrating friendship is Komang Suastra‘s Balinese handcrafted Sterling Silver bangle named “Tender Embrace”.

Any cat lover will love this little hand-carved guacayan-wood cat-pendant necklace. The Peruvian artisan duo Antuane and Santos captured well how cute and charming a cat can sit. This cat necklace is also a great jewelry-box addition for people with Bohemian style, minimalist style, or California Casual style.
Indian artisan Aditi designs and handcrafts necklaces using ceramic and cotton. Both raw materials-loam and cotton-come from natural sources. These unexpected materials make a statement with even the simplest casual weekend look of jeans and a Tee. It’s also minimalist style which goes with almost everything, but formal or glamor.
What about eco-friendly artisan-made home décor?
