Huayruru seed and silver wire star earrings - made by Peruvian Amazon artisan
This unique pair of boho-style earrings features a delicate chain of three small huayruru seeds above a five-point star of silver wire with a spiral center. These naturally two-tone huayruru seeds come from a distinctive group of tropical trees in the bean family which are mostly reddish-orange with a distinctive black patch. Throughout the Amazon they are considered to bring the bearer good luck, but it is important to remember that they are not edible.
These earrings are made by experienced artisans from the Peruvian Amazon. The French hooks are made with non-allergenic material.

Support native artisans & rainforest in the Amazon
Amazon forest loss is driving species to extinction, aggravating global warming, and robbing people of unique medicines, foods and other benefits. Cutting and burning forests is often more profitable than conserving them, so some native communities in northern Peru have illegally logged and grown coca and other cash-crops to escape poverty.
