We are a family run company based in Quito, the capital of Ecuador.
We specialize in making natural and eco-friendly jewels using tropical seeds, in particular Tagua which is the seed of a palm tree that grows wild in the tropical areas of Ecuador. It is also known as Vegetable Ivory due to its similarity to elephant ivory in colour, hardness and texture. Tagua is the only sustainable alternative to animal ivory, it helps protecting the rainforest and contributes to the economy of the local communities.
All our beautiful items are designed and handmade by us using only the best quality Seeds. No one item is exactly the same as another, shapes and colours may vary slightly, which gives our superb products their uniqueness.
We strongly believe in a sustainable, ethical jewellery and we feel inspired by nature and their colours. We started making natural jewels in 2007 after visiting indigenous communities in Ecuador and becoming fascinated with their superb handicrafts which respect and protect the natural environment.
Our products are made with a combination of traditional techniques, natural and eco-friendly materials, casual and trendy designs. They are particularly appealing to the contemporary woman who believes in a more natural and eco-friendly life.
