Plum kernels are transformed into delicately carved "baskets" that carry the blessings of a symbolic dove.

Your purchase directly supports Taller Jaraguá, named for a wild, fast-spreading grass that is strong and resilient. Working primarily with coconuts to create jewelry, these women purchase all of their materials from other local family businesses to create a thriving support system. Education is one of their main objectives, and proceeds from their sales have enabled them to build a library with donated books. Classes are held in the alleyways of their urban location while still preserving their culture and dignity.

Dimensions: Hangs 1 3/8" from top of wire loop.

Because this item is handcrafted, colours and designs may vary. Each piece is completely unique and might not exactly match the photo.
