Tassel Tagua Earrings

These fun Tagua Nut earrings have a lotus flower charm displayed on top of them. Lightweight and easy to wear! The Tagua Nut is a renewable and sustainable resource from the rainforests of South America. The production of these nuts provides jobs for thousands of people providing them with a better life for their families. The production also reduces deforestation since these trees will not be cut down because they provide income for so many people. Yet another plus to the Tagua Nut, is it’s common nickname; ‘vegetable ivory’ because the color and texture are so similar to elephant ivory. In fact, one tagua palm can grow as much ‘vegetable ivory’ as a female elephant produces her entire life. The Tagua Nut is extremely lightweight and each nut is unique, so no two items will be the same. The pieces will also have a great story behind them! I hope you enjoy your unique item made by Mother Nature.
