Description

Necklace and earring set. Necklace features multicolored dried melon seeds hand-woven onto brown cord, with a brown bombona seed accent. Slip-knot closure allows for length to be adjusted slightly. Earrings match necklace with large cluster of seeds. Handmade by a cooperative of women in Colombia working together to sustainably harvest, dry and hand-color indigenous seeds to create unique jewelry. Their inspiration comes from their colorful cultural traditions and teachings of finding beauty in Mother Nature's abundant gifts. Their desire is to teach the children to incorporate these ideals with building a strong economic and community-based future for themselves.
