Handcarved Galapagos turtle made in Tagua nuts

Do you know what is vegetable ivory?

 Vegetable ivory also known as Tagua is a green product.

It is a nut that comes from the Phylelephas macrocarpas a palm tree which grows in limited geographical areas at the Amazon rainforest, especially in Ecuador.

When dryed and carved, the nut is ivory like the real animal ivory.

This amazing tree is providing jobs to thousand of artisans in South America , is saving the african elephants because of its vegan source of ivory and  its rational explotaition or harvesting is preserving the Amazon jungle.

Be green , buy tagua art, decor  and jewelry! Say not to plastic and to animal ivory sell in the black markets!  Say yes to Amazon Ivory and all its benefits.

 

Product Features:  

Color:  natural ivory color and  brown turtles carved from tagua nuts

Material:  Vegetal ivory or TAGUA.  The art is 100% tagua

Dimensions:      4" tall and 3" wide

Origin:  Ecuador, South America. 

Another ecological incentive for using vegetable ivory is that renewed trade in Tagua nuts could help protect endangered rain forests in Ecuador, Colombia and Peru. According to a Massachusetts-based environmental group called Cultural Survival, natural rain forest products such as vegetable ivory can generate up to five times the income of banana plantations and cattle ranches.

If you have ecological or vegan heart and love to have unique and natural things,  this Tagua decoration for desk or table is what you have been longing for.   This is a handcrafted piece  of art, which took hours of labor from skilled artists and which promotes the fair trade with artisans communities located in South America.   I am an Ecuadorian residing in USA and the commerce of this crafts is my own crusade to promote the development of my people.
