Imported from the Iquitos market, located in the heart of the Peruvian jungle, renowned for its authentic handicrafts, especially its necklaces made from natural seeds.
These jewels are often handmade by local artisans, using materials such as tagua (vegetable ivory), huayruro seeds (lucky charm), morototo seeds or even palm seeds.
These necklaces are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also carry deep cultural meanings.
For example, huayruro seeds are considered lucky charms, while tagua is valued for its durability and ivory-like texture.
