Encanto Collections

The Semilla Collection uses tagua, the seed of a palm-like tree that grows in the tropical rainforests of South America. These necklaces, pendants, earrings, chokers, bracelets, rings and brooches communicate freshness and natural beauty. Each style has at least five different color combinations: oranges, reds, pinks, salmons, greens, blues as well as the earth tones of coffee, okra, grays, and yellow earth.

Due to the nature of the Tagua seed, the dimensions and colors can vary slightly giving each piece its own uniqueness.

What is Tagua?

Natural
Tagua (pronounced TAG-WAH) is a seed or a nut from a palm like tree that grows in the tropical rainforests of Ecuador, Colombia, and Brazil.

Vibrant
Tagua is also known as “vegetable   ivory”, because of its rich natural  color and shiny texture, that  resembles ivory.


Creative

Tagua is a versatile material that can be carved, polished and cut into many different shapes including rings, squares, and flat pieces.

Colorful and Bright
Tagua has the innate ability to absorb color brightly without bleeding or fading.

Spontanenous
Being a living material, Tagua has the imprint of the earth giving richness in texture. Sometimes it seems like ivory, sometimes like wood; and sometimes it sparkles like a precious stone, but in essence it is not easy to define…it is, quite simply,Tagua.
