Luna Tagua Star Bangle
This hammered brass bangle features a versatile wrap-around style, allowing it to be adjusted slightly to fit comfortably around the wrist. The moon charm is hand carved from tagua, the seed from a type of palm that's often referred to as vegetable ivory.
Why we love it
- Hand crafted by skilled women through fair trade cooperatives in Ecuador & India
- Designed in London and brought to the UK by a collaborative, innovative brand with over 20 years experience working with fair trade producers
- Brand is also a proud member of The British Association for Fair Trade Shops and Suppliers (BAFTS) and is completely committed to the principles set out by the World Fair Trade Organisation (WFTO)
Just Trade works in partnership with fair trade artisans across the world to create hand made contemporary fashion jewellery for the ethically minded.
The bangle is handmade by the Flowering Desert Project which provides training and fairly paid work for women from rural communities in Tamil Nadu, India. The women started as a group of 7 and have developed in to an incredible team of 40. The initial team were trained back in 2010 and since then have been passing on their metal making knowledge and skills to new members. Each bangle is carefully textured and formed ready for the charm to be attached by hand using wire.
The star charm is hand carved from a tagua nut, a seed from a type of palm that grows in the South American rainforests. Often known as vegetable ivory, tagua is an environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative to animal ivory. A nut is selected that is as close to the desired finished shape as possible, which is then formed using a variety of sanding processes and polished to achieve a smooth surface.
Bangle measures approximately 5.5cm diameter. Star charm measures approximately 1cm. Comes with recyclable card swing tag detailing the fair trade nature of the product.
