Coconut We use different types of coconuts in different shapes, colors and sizes. Ulitising each and every piece, making sure not to waste anything, and therefore not unbalancing the harmony of nature.The rings and ear rings are mainly made from 4 different types of coconut palm oil nuts: patti, dende, piassava and licuri. Where each of the palm oil nuts colour variation relates to the stage of development at the time that the coconut was hand picked. |
 |
Patti Light weight yet very strong, every ring is handcrafted from the centre of one patti palm oil nut. No two rings are identical, every coconut ring has it's own unique colours and patterns which are the natural colours of the coconut's shell, usually black brown white and mixed colour. |
 |
Dende Light weight yet very strong, every ring and ear ring is handcrafted from the centre of one dende palm oil nut.No two rings are identical, but each pair of ear ring has been "identically" paired, mainly dark in colour. |
 |
Piassava Handcrafted from the complete piassava nut, every coconut ring and ear ring has it's own unique colours and patterns. The special thing about the piassava nut is that oils from your skin as well as water will darken the rings and ear rings.Gradually they darkening into a deep rich caramel colour. |
 |
Licuri Lightweight yet strong, handcrafted from the centre of each licuri palm oil nut, then "identically" paired, the coconut ear rings complement the natural earth tones of your hair and complexion.Mainly coloured in black, brown, white and mixed colours.They are held onto the ear by a thin hand polished wooden posts that fastens through the small holes on the ear rings. |

Horn Usually black but can also be translucent grey with an orange or greenish tint. It polishes to a very shiny finish and is both strong and durable due to thefibrous materials.Our horn is sourced from the domestic Water Buffalos used in Bali.No animal is ever harmed and the horn is regarded as a by- product of this animals domestic capacity. |

Bone White or cream coloured with a similar finish to horn and can be slightly more brittle but still strong material. Bone is largely composed of the mineral calcium carbonate.

*About natural materials* Natural materials and jewellery can sometimes be sensitive to the changes in temperature and humidity, especially if they are composed of two or more materials and should not be worn in steam baths or saunas. Some of the materials will naturally change colour over time, but that is part of the magic of dealing with natural materials |
