What is a Tagua Nut?

The Tagua Nut is a natural symbol of strength and versatility with its adaptability, meaning it can be stunningly carved into a spiritual form. Grown on palm trees, tagua nuts are known as “vegetable ivory”, an eco- and animal-friendly alternative to animal ivory.

Tagua nuts are mainly grown in Ecuador, this nut can be carved into sculptures, buttons and jewelry. When you buy a product made from tagua, your money is ensuring fair wages and environmental protection. In Ecuador, the tagua nut comes from the Ecuadorian Ivory Palm.
