Item Description
Beautiful, dyed green and creme Tagua Nut Chocker/Necklace. Also known as "vegetable ivory," tagua is produced by a palm-like tree in South America. The nuts fall to the ground when mature, thus harvesting does not damage the trees. Tagua nut's grain is close and very hard, resembling the finest ivory. Artisans carve each nut individually into the desired form. Cultural tradition and forest preservation combine in the use of this renewable resource. Length - 15.5"
