Hollow Slices Tagua Earrings

Sustainable Jewellery Crafted with Care

The Hollow Slices Tagua Jewellery is a unique collection of natural, organic pieces, handcrafted from sustainably harvested Tagua, also known as "vegetable ivory." Each Tagua slice features a hollow center, stainless steel loops, and a variety of vibrant colors, making these pieces perfect for eco-conscious fashion lovers.

Sourced from the Tagua palm tree (Phitelephas Aequatorialis) found in the South American rainforest, Tagua is harvested naturally and ripens over time, hardening to a smooth, ivory-like texture. These stunning pieces are handmade by talented women artisans in Bogotá, providing an income for mothers and local families in the region.

Key Features:

• Sustainably Harvested Tagua: Natural Tagua, handpicked from the South American rainforest, turns as hard as ivory over time, with a rich natural color.
• Handmade by Artisans: Crafted by women artisans in Bogotá, these pieces support local communities and showcase unique craftsmanship.
• Variety of Colors: Available in a wide range of vibrant, natural colors, making each piece a standout addition to your collection.
• Durable Stainless Steel Loops: Designed with stainless steel loops for durability and style.
• Eco-Friendly: A sustainable alternative to animal ivory, Tagua helps preserve the rainforest and supports local communities.

Tagua Care:

• Protect from Extreme Conditions: Avoid exposing your Tagua jewelry to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, water, or steam.
• Humidity Caution: Keep away from humid environments like bathrooms to prevent fungi growth.
• Natural Aging: Over time, Tagua may gradually change color, developing a richer ivory-yellow hue, which adds to its unique beauty.
• Cleaning: Wipe with a damp cloth to maintain its natural shine.
