About Tagua
The origin of a beautiful and
exotic piece of work: Tagua Beads!
You might ask what is Exotic Ivory? Well, let me tell you that in
tropical and humid mountains of Ecuador there is a singular plant
called Tagua, also called exotic ivory or vegetable ivory too. Wait
a minute...! A tree plant called vegetable ivory!? Is that
possible? Well, to give you an scientific explanation: Tagua
because of its morphology looks like palms, but is not a
botanically palmcea but belongs to the Ciclantceas family.
Its scientific name is Phytelephas Aequatorialis. Etymologically
from the Greek PhytelephasPhyton = plant and Elephas = ivory, ie
plant ivory or vegetable ivory, or Tagua or Exotic Ivory. Wow, so
many names for a palm tree:).
Tagua is remarkably similar to animal ivory in both looks and feel.
Tagua is durable and easily carved, and it even mimics the porosity
of animal ivory. The biggest difference: Elephant do not have to
die.
(Did you know that previously turning into hard-rock eco ivory,
tagua is a fruit that you can actually eat? Taste like coco.)
Well, I don't pretent to bore you, so let's skip this and go to the
interesting part. The true is that this material is hard and looks
like animal ivory, and it is completely natural. Therefore, we have
ivory, but elephants don't have to die. How cool is that, ah?
Tagua is so versatile that we can use it to manufacture decorative
figurines, buttons for the fashion industry, and also beads for
jewelry making, which is very suitable for women in different
countries of the world.
