Folks, This is one of about a dozen white or natural tagua carvings I am going to upload today. Tagua is commonly referred to as vegetable ivory. And for good reason, it look just like it. But the best news is it comes from a renewable nut that grows on a palm.
The nuts are about the size of a child's fist. The artists usually paint the carvings with fine india inks but I get a number of calls for the natural carvings so here we go.
This one is a simple bowl completed whittled out by hand. Folks, if you want to try your hand at painting tagua this is a good one to start with.
This is a particularly good carving.
