🌿 Material: Tagua Nut – “Vegetable Ivory” with Sacred Texture
This pendant is crafted from tagua nut, also known as “vegetable ivory.” It comes from the seed of South American palm trees that take over 15 years to mature, and the fruit itself requires 3–8 years to fully ripen.
After being sun-dried for months, the nut hardens into a material that mirrors the texture, color, and durability of animal ivory — yet it is 100% sustainable and eco-friendly.
Each tagua nut features natural ring-like patterns, a smooth, creamy surface, and a warm tone that develops beautifully over time, making every pendant unique and full of natural charm.
✋ Craftsmanship: Hand-Carved Ksitigarbha – Artistry in Devotion
Every pendant is entirely hand-carved by skilled artisans, depicting Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva (Dizang Pusa) with serene compassion and divine presence.
From the folds of his robe to the staff in his hand and the gentle aura surrounding him, every detail is sculpted with care and precision.
Each piece embodies the artisan’s faith and devotion, blending traditional craftsmanship with the spiritual depth of Buddhist art — resulting in a one-of-a-kind creation of faith and beauty.
🕊️ Cultural Significance: Ksitigarbha – Bodhisattva of Compassion & Protection
In Buddhist belief, Ksitigarbha is the Bodhisattva who vowed:
“Until hell is empty, I will not become a Buddha.”
This symbolizes boundless compassion, guidance, and protection for all beings.
Wearing or displaying this pendant connects you to Ksitigarbha’s blessings — bringing peace, protection from misfortune, and a reminder to nurture kindness and wisdom in daily life.
