About Tagua Nut / Vegetable Ivory
Tagua Nut comes from the seed of certain palm trees and is often called Vegetable Ivory because of its naturally smooth, ivory-like appearance. It is plant-based and lightweight, not animal ivory. Because this is a natural botanical material, slight color variation, natural grain, tiny marks, or carving variations may be present and add to its character.
Symbolism
Birds are often associated with love, joy, freedom, harmony, and peaceful communication. Two birds together can symbolize companionship, partnership, family, or connection. The flowering tree adds a beautiful nature-inspired theme of growth, renewal, and beauty.
