What is tagua nut?

The Tagua Nut is a natural material which doesn't destroy the tree and helps protect the environment. The Tagua Tree is a palm tree that?grows freely under some rare subtropical climates. Its weight, colour & hardness is similar to that of elephant, thus It is an ideal substitute. By purchasing this item you not only help to keep an ancient craft alive, but also help to save the african elephant!!!

The plants are dioecious, with the female individuals bearing large brown conical fruits, each approximately the size of a grapefruit and covered in a horned husk, containing usually four seeds. Immature seeds contain sweet edible pulp. Mature seeds are harder than wood and are encased in a bonelike shell. The endosperm is a white hemicellulose material that is so hard it can be polished and carved like ivory. Indeed, the plant's genus name Phytelephas means "elephant plant".

The Value of a Netsuke

At the end of the nineteenth century everything Japanese became en vogue in Europe. Netsuke were sold rather cheaply until the second half of the twentieth century when a rising number of collectors discovered the charm of netsuke. The Japanese did not even consider netsuke as something worth collecting. Therefore most of the best netsuke are in Western collections outside Japan.

Prices can range from US$100 to US$100,000. Top prices are connected to a few well known artist designers. But in general the existence of a signature does not have much influence on the value of a netsuke piece. Nor does the material. What matters most, is the quality of carving, originality and a charming subject.
