This unique, one-of-a-kind pendant is handmade by local artisans in Cusco, Peru. It is hallmarked and made using 950 carat silver.

The waxed cord has a solid silver clasp which is made by the 'Karen' Tribe, situated in villages north of Chiang Mai in the mountainous regions of northern Thailand.

In both cases, the artisans receive a fair wage and support at every level. By purchasing this unique product you are helping break the cycle of poverty by empowering developing artisan comunities - on opposite sides of the world - through the support of ethical trade.

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.
