Show the world just how fashionable and environmentally conscientious you are. Right now at The Meeting Place, we have a lovely assortment of one-of-a-kind rings made from Tagua. Tagua is an extremely hard nut that comes from the Ivory Nut Palm in the South American rain forests.
The rem

Not only is this resource renewable and sustainable, it provides a natural harvesting opportunity for South American farmers, which boosts the local economies and encourages the preservation of rain forests, where the Tagua Nut Palm grows.
No two Tagua rings are alike. Because our rings are entirely handmade from the Tagua nut, there will be variations in size, shape, and color to make each ring both beautiful and unique. And at only $19 each, Tagua rings from The Meeting Place are an affordable and fun conversation piece that you wear.
