Description

Tropical Bouquet Necklace

A sumptuous tropical bouquet necklace, the symphony of elements in this piece are made from carved tagua nut, semi-precious stones, red coral and freshwater pearls, arranged and mounted by this renowned San Jose fashion jeweller. The vividly coloured pieces hang from “vines” of German silver.

The jeweller, Lucía Echaverría, is renowned for her fluid, organic presentations in her jewelry repetoire. She saw the beauty of this Wounaan (tribe) carved tagua – known as vegetable ivory – orchid and knew it would be a perfect marriage for her unique artistry, thus this stunning and one-of-a-kind necklace and earring set came to be and is available exclusively in Galería Namu.
