Achkiy Black Tagua Necklace

We love this stuff! The fruit of the tagua palm becomes like ivory when left to harden and can be carved, dyed and polished into gorgeous jewellery like this necklace. In this range the tagua has been cut into discs and combined with ribbon to give it a very contemporary look.
