Wounaan Hand Carved Tagua Frog Pendant Carving-Panama 20092533L

This handsome pendant measures 2" x 2.5".

See that little chip on the lower left side? That isn’t a chip, it is where the nut would have germinated had it been allowed to sprout. Every tagua nut has this hole. In the old days the artists left it or part of it as evidence that the piece actually is tagua. This is an old carving, perhaps 25 years old. Tagua only gets better with age. Sorta like me....

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