Pataxó indigenous seed necklace
€40,00
Authentic Pataxó Indigenous seed necklace (often called colar de sementes or biojoia), handcrafted by artisans of the Pataxó community in Bahia, Brazil.
- Materials: It is meticulously constructed from native, sustainably harvested rainforest seeds (such as juerana or tento) dyed naturally using regional plant extracts, roots, and barks.
- Design: The traditional pattern integrates geometric, zig-zag arrangements of elongated brown seed clusters interwoven with vibrant green teardrop seed accents.
- Cultural Value: Each design serves as a form of bodily adornment (adornos corporais) expressing identity, ancestry, and the community's deep-rooted connection to the land.
