Tagua jewelry is an organic product, made from the seeds of Tagua palm tree which grows in Ecuador's Amazon rainforest. Every7 years a female tagua tree produces big pods in which the seeds are contained. Then  the heavy husk covering the nuts is removed, the nuts are sliced into different shapes, dyed with organic vegetable dyes, holes are drilled into each piece, and new tagua chips are ready for jewelry making.

Tagua nuts are hard, dense and durable, they do not scratch and are lightweight. This jewelry is eco friendly, "green" product.  Natural tagua is creme/ ivory colored. The bright colors are from organic dyes imported from Italy.
