TRIBAL OR GLOBAL BRACELET IN TAGUA AS SEEN ON MARIE CLAIRE
"VERY RARE BANGLE"
Here is what Nina Garcia, editor in chief of Elle and Marie Claire magazines and judge of Proyect Runway says about the thick cuff or bracelet in her book "The one hundred":
"The cuff is one bracelet that is always, always on the runway. Because of his heft, it always makes a statement and never goes unnoticed. Which is why is also a piece that is often used to assert or proclaim someone's personal style".
Do you were looking for a unique jewelry different from the plastic bracelets mass marketed everywhere and in the meantime do something worthy for the humanity?. This is your opportunity to combine fashion with giving.
These statement chunky bracelets or cuffs are made of "vegetable ivory" also known as Tagua o Corozo nut three. The scientific name of this palm is Phytelephas equatorialis, and also is known as the ivory-nut or elephant plant. It is known as the ivory plant because the resemblance with the animal ivory is so close that not even an expert can tell the difference. This plant is saving the lives of elephants and rhinos unfairly hunted a cause of its ivory.
Enviromental studies made by professor Amstrong from Pallomar collegue (California) shows that the vegetable ivory creations can help to curb down rainforest degradation and economic poverty in several populations in the coastal provinces of Ecuador.
Besides, a statement bracelet is a must have in every woman's closet. Let your bracelet speaks for you, those are available in turquoise and orange, red, multicolor and wood earthy tones. Please check my other listings.
