Iraca and Tagua Fiesta Keychains

Hand-carved tagua chicon (small, sliced beads made from the tagua nut, a sustainable, organic seed native to South American rainforests), and hand-woven Iraca (from the Iraca palm) create a multi-piece and fiesta colored keychain. Lovely as a key chain, or as an accent for bags and mochilas!

• Small measures 5.25 inches long.
• Medium measures 6.25 inches long.

Made in Colombia.

At Belart, in their solar-powered workshop, artisans transform these palm fibers using ancestral techniques - harvesting, carding, and naturally dyeing with seeds, leaves, and minerals. The fibers are carefully wood-fired dyed and shade-dried before skilled weavers create these timeless pieces. They are thoughtfully handcrafted by master artisans, combining sustainable and natural materials like Tagua seeds, Iraca-Toquilla palm fiber, up-cycled wood, clay, and upcycled horn with eco-conscious metals and resins. By preserving traditional techniques, providing fair, long-term employment, and development opportunities, Belart supports artisan communities while creating unique, safe pieces that are free of lead, nickel, and cadmium.
