High quality and unique accessories can be made out of Tagua, which is also known as Vegetable ivory.

Tagua is a dried seedpod of a palm tree that grows in the tropical rainforest of Ecuador. The natural color of Tagua is ivory white and resembles the finest animal ivory in texture and color.

When ripe, the seeds fall to the ground and are gathered and dried from approximately four to eight weeks. Then, there is not any damage to the palm three. Indeed, the Tagua becomes a sustainable and eco-friendly natural material.

The Tagua seeds then can be peeled, sliced, carved and dyed. The different accessories and decorative figures are indeed made from the dried and polished Tagua seeds. Certainly, any kind of style and color can be created to suit new fashion trends!!!

These accessories and decorative figures beautifully are hand made by skilled artisans from Ecuador - South America, with more than sixteen years of experience. Positively, we want to promote their hard work as the TAGUA (vegetable ivory) stimulates the economy in Ecuador, as this provides an alternative to cutting down rainforest for farming; and also, it generates a sustainable work to different people contributing to their economic and social development.
