Description
Artisans in Ecuador carve petal shapes from dried tagua palm nut and string them with açai beads for a black-and-white bracelet with floral flair. The tagua palm is just one product of the Ecuadorian rainforest that locals put to good use. When it's dried, the palm nut is a natural and cruelty-free alternative to animal ivory.
This jewelry item comes packaged in a white box (pictured).
