From Seed to Jewel

Our Tagua jewelry begins in the tropical rain forests of Colombia's Pacific Coast, where the seed of the Tagua palm -known as vegetable ivory- are gathered by hand. Once dried and polished, each seed revels a natural luster that rivals ivory, yet preserves the beauty of the forest.

WHAT IS TAGUA?
Tagua is a natural seed native to South America that develops a dense ivory-like surface once dried. For decades, artisans have used the material to create jewelry, sculptural details, and decorative objects through carving and polishing techniques performed by hand.
Its organic variations in tone and texture make every finished piece distinct.

FROM MATERIAL TO OBJECT
The transformation begins with drying the seeds naturally before carving, smoothing, and polishing each form individually. The process requires precision and patience, allowing the material’s natural luster to emerge over time.
At Hunting Season, these details are central to the design process — an approach rooted in refinement rather than excess.

NATURAL CRAFTSMANSHIP
As interest in natural materials continues to grow, tagua offers a renewable alternative shaped through artisanal techniques rather than industrial production.
The resulting objects feel organic yet sculptural, reflecting the quiet elegance that defines Hunting Season.
