This pendant is a minimalist dream. Simple, uncluttered and goes with everything! It is hand carved from a tagua nut, a seed from a type of palm that grows in the South American rainforests. Often known as vegetable ivory, tagua is an environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative to animal ivory. A nut is selected that is as close to the desired finished shape as possible, which is then formed using a variety of sanding processes and polished to achieve a smooth surface.

On a brass chain. Can be coordinated with earrings from the Just Trade collection.
