The originality and uniqueness of ColoMBiana jewelry come from the rare material La Tagua, which we use to create our pieces. La Tagua (also known as vegetable ivory) is the fruit of palm trees that grow in the tropical rainforests of South America. It is the only plant-based material whose composition, hardness, and color are almost identical to animal ivory. Because of this, La Tagua seeds are often referred to as "plant ivory." In the past, plant ivory was widely used for making buttons. However, after World War II, this natural material was largely replaced by cheap plastics imported from China.

Each ColoMBiana piece of jewelry is unique, thanks to the natural material that varies in size, shape, and color. Its quality and originality are further enhanced by 100% handmade craftsmanship.

To create means to grow, and ColoMBiana has naturally evolved over time to include a project focused on linen clothing, adding a new dimension to our brand. Our linen materials are sourced from small European producers and are certified with OEKO-TEX Standard 100, meeting all international criteria.

Not only are the raw materials we use eco-friendly, but so are the dyes. The linen fabrics are dyed using ecological or organic dyes, each certified individually. Similarly, La Tagua nuts are colored using natural pigments derived from sources like berries, flower pollen, and other organic materials.

We create our products based on specific orders, meaning we don’t produce items for stock. Instead, we only make what is needed.

Our designs are created in-house to enhance the natural qualities of our materials rather than diminish them. We see design as a crucial part of the production process—a foundation upon which everything is built. It’s at this stage that the most suitable form of our products is determined, guided by the material's properties. From there, we focus on finding the right construction techniques, technological processes, and selecting appropriate components and accessories. Since we handle design ourselves without outsourcing, we spend a significant amount of time experimenting and developing each product before it reaches our online store.

We deeply value the uniqueness of the diverse shapes nature offers. Jewelry made from La Tagua nuts is exceptional, and no two pieces can ever be exactly the same. Just as each of us is unique, we offer the possibility to tailor your order to your specific needs. You can request small adjustments, like customizing the length or selecting one of the 40 colors from our linen color chart. This ensures that your clothing from us fits you perfectly!
