With a dip in the center leading to two holes, this button reminds us of a donut. It's smooth, durable, and oh-so-classic. Machine-made in Spain from tagua nuts collected by Ecuador's native people, the button both looks and feels wonderful.
The nut of a native palm tree, tagua is also known as corozo or vegetable ivory. It looks like animal ivory, and can be both carved and dyed. Profits made from the nut's use provide a reason not to harvest South American rain forest and deplete the ozone layer.
