WTS AMY TAGUA NECKLACE

AMY TAGUA NECKLACE. Amy means beloved. This gal and this necklace are just that! It’s the quintessential tagua piece, an easy to wear style of sliced tagua. I especially love her with a simple Tshirt or sundress. Her light weight and organic material makes her great for warm weather. Matching earrings sold separately. 

Tagua can be found in the best boutiques to add an organic, earthy vibe to all your looks. Our various shapes, sizes and colors can be styled to fit any look from coastal preppy to cool boho. TAGUA BELLA is designed by me in collaboration with the talented artisans in my region of Ecuador. Each is artisan-made by hand. TAGUA BELLA is fair-trade, purchased from the maker, and making a difference in their lives.  

Tagua is a nut from a palm tree, found only in South America. Most is found in Ecuador, in my Manabi region along the coast. It is commonly called vegetable ivory. It is so close in makeup and appearance, it is difficult to distinguish from animal ivory. Gathering the fallen tagua, has many benefits economically and naturally sustains the rainforest. It causes no harm, unlike the cruel world of sourcing animal ivory. Our beads are the nut of açaí  berries, commonly referred to and sold as tagua. Like tagua, açaí is a nut from a palm tree, found in South America’s equatorial rainforests.

Each is unique and will vary slightly from photos. Tagua has natural shapes and sizes. Please allow for slight differences that are not flaws. We hand check each piece for quality and offer a 100% Happiness Guarantee.
