Product Story
This stunning necklace is meticulously crafted using miriti fiber, obtained from the leaves of the mauritia flexuosa palm tree. This tree, native to the Amazon rainforest and tropical regions of South America, holds the secret to a natural and sustainable material with extraordinary properties.
For generations, indigenous communities in the Amazon region have treasured Miriti fiber for its strength, flexibility, and durability. This versatile fiber has been skillfully woven into baskets, mats, hats, and hammocks, showcasing the depth of its artistry and utility. Embodying the essence of eco-friendliness, Miriti fiber is a precious resource that supports the creation of sustainable and environmentally-friendly products.
What sets this necklace apart is the captivating inclusion of tarpon fish scales, known as “Escama de Pirapema.”. Collected by the resourceful wives of fishermen, these fish scales, once discarded as waste, have found a new life as breathtaking jewelry. By utilizing these scales, these enterprising women have created a new source of income for their families, fostering a circle of sustainable livelihoods.
Adding to its allure, the necklace's enchanting hues are crafted from nature's palette. Natural materials such as green tea, senna, blackberry, and onion peel tea lend their organic tones, reflecting the harmony between the jewelry and the environment.
