Gorgeous tagua bracelet crafted by carefully carving the tagua into L-shaped pieces! Elastic band fits most wrists, but exact size will vary!

This bracelet is made from hand-carved tagua nuts sourced from fair-trade artisans in Ecuador's rainforests.

These beautiful forest seeds are carefully vegetable-dyed, carved, and left with a bit of the natural nut appearance, then polished to perfection! Carefully crafted by artisans in Ecuador!

What is tagua? Tagua is a seed, or often called a nut, produced by a type of palm that is found in South America. This incredibly durable vegetable ivory is a beautiful, sustainable resource that artisans use to craft jewelry and many other trinkets. The artisans harvest, dye, and carve tagua into various designs, creating beautiful gifts.

Welcome to Sun and Wing where sustainable style meets artisan craftsmanship.

I specialize in handmade Tagua nut jewelry, working with the incredible "vegetable ivory" ethically sourced from Ecuador's rainforests.

My passion is transforming this eco-friendly material into one-of-a-kind statement pieces that are as kind to the planet as they are beautiful to wear. Because Tagua is a natural seed, no two pieces are exactly alike—meaning every necklace, earring, and bracelet is truly unique to you.

I also partner with artisan brands from Ecuador that create stunning handmade tagua jewelry, as well as hand-woven wool textiles and apparel.
