TAGUA NUT BRACELET - A beautiful Tagua Nut bracelet, crafted on an adjustable string for different sized wrists. Native to the Amazonian regions of Ecuador. Tagua is the seed of a palm tree whose physical composition is similar to elephant ivory. Because it is a natural occurring plant, the characteristics of tagua allow it to be a resource that can continue to be used over the long term. This allows environmentally conscious people to enjoy the beautiful elements of ivory without the cruel elements of the elephant ivory trade. Tagua has a high aesthetic and utilitarian value that allows it to be used as an accessory in clothing and jewelry dating back to the Spanish colonization in America.
