These cute little eagle statues are hand-carved out of tagua nuts.
Size range: 4"- 4.5"
The tagua nut is native to Brazil and is a very ethical choice as one palm tree can produce hundreds of nuts in a year. They are also known as vegetable ivory due to similarities in appearance to ivory, and are very popular with artisans and carvers as they are quite soft to carve.
