This gorgeous statement necklace is comprised of ten whole tagua seeds along an adjustable cotton string, two acai seeds at each end tip. Bold and naturally beautiful. The tagua seeds are fully dried, then dyed red and polished. These tagua seeds are sustainable, organic, and vegan, pure vegetable ivory (Tagua seeds).
When ripe, tagua seeds are harvested and dried for 6 to 9 months. After losing all their moisture they become rock solid resembling ivory in color, texture, and hardness, hence their nickname: “Vegetable Ivory”. At this point the hard seeds can be polished, dyed, cut, and shaped into beautiful beads that become FLORAMA natural jewelry.
