Wounaan Embera Sea Turtle Tagua Nut Carving-Panama 21010512mm

The Wounaan tagua carvers are some of the best tagua carvers in the world. We have been buying and selling their tagua carvings for more than 25 years.

This is a lovely sea turtle tagua carving. The artist tried out a new technique on the front flippers. It gives the carving an unusual look. The artist used a rather large nut for this carving. What is most remarkable is how well the artist painted the shell.

Every tagua carving is a one-of-a-kind treasure.
