Vegetable Ivory Earrings
$45.00

Availability: In stock

Colombian artisans use sustainably harvested vegetable ivory from the Amazon rainforest to create a pair of earrings that both your fashionista and eco-minded friends will covet.

One day I received a call from a woman who said she had visited the VirtuArte website and thought her line of jewelry made from sustainable materials would be a wonderful addition to the VirtuArte collection.  As I am always looking for new artists and new products I agreed to meet with her.  Lorena Gaitan brought her beautiful Colombian jewelry collection to our first meeting and I couldn't keep my hands off the wide array of vegetable ivory, bull horn and cana flecha necklaces, bracelets and earrings.

Elbeto was started by Lorena to promote the growth and development of emerging designers in her country of origin, Colombia.  Vegetable ivory, the material used to create these earrings, is a seed that grows on specific palm trees found abundantly in the Amazon river basin.  When dried, the seed has a texture and hardness similar to ivory and can be carved, dyed and polished to create beautiful objects.  Elbeto works to preserve traditional craftsmanship while creating fashion forward accessories for VirtuArte customers.
