Tagua Heart Keychain Vegan Hand-crafted in Ecuador

Hand-crafted Natural Heart Shaped Tagua Keychain * CHECK OUT OUR OTHER TAGUA SET LISTINGS IN OUR STORE!* Tagua is a palm-like tree that grows throughout South America, most commonly in Ecuador. It is knows as the "vegetable ivory"; it is a cruelty-free mineral. The tag nut hardens and thickens as the tree starts to grow, growing in size inside its' pod. Once the seeds are picked, they are laid to dry in the sun. Once dried, they are polished and carved; resulting in a smooth, shiny textured bead. To achieve their bright, beautiful colors, the nuts are dyed with organic materials. The perfect beautiful vegan, eco-conscious accessories.
