About Us

 

Radiante is a unique shop where you can find special pieces and handmade products which represent the enthusiasm, love and warmth of our Colombian artisans.

 

    

We work with tagua, a white nut that grows in Colombia. The palm grows in the wild at lower elevations across Colombia, so there is no need to start tagua plantations. Locals collect fruit from the forest floor year-round after it falls from the tree, and the seeds are then extracted and dried.

Each piece is handmade completed. The artisans from Choco- Colombia slice the nuts, tint them in simmering pots of colorful dye and assemble the pieces into different shapes, color and sizes. We have a great variety of beds, buttons, necklaces, earrings, bracelets and frames, among others.

    

The beads can be used for all sorts of jewelry and crafts making.
