Key Features Circle design Colour - blue Sterling silver posts Dimension - approx. 1.2 cm These unique stud earrings with a open circle design are hand carved and made from Tagua. The beautiful pair is the result of a truly international collaboration between artisans in fair trade workshops in Ecuador and Peru. Tagua is a nut from a type of palm that grows in the South American jungle. Often known as vegetable ivory, it is a sustainable and environmentally sound alternative to animal ivory. It is a natural, organic material and the undyed products may darken slightly over time, this is normal. If your Tagua jewellery is looking a bit dull it can be buffed up with a soft white cotton cloth. Ethically made & beautifully crafted!
