Tagua is the seed of a tree similar to a palm that grows all year-round in the tropical rainforests of some South American countries. It takes approximately 15 years to produce its first harvest and will not stop bearing fruit for all of the years and even a century to come. Can be harvested without detriment to the rainforest. Tagua is also known as vegetable ivory nut.

The native people of South America used Tagua seeds to characterize the feminine because of its great magnet-like romantic energy. Each component of the tribe was given a tagua accessory to wear around his or her neck. The community believed that people wearing tagua would live in harmony and always be loved by their friends and family.
