Tambo No. 1 Handmade Iron Candlestick with Multicolor Tagua Beads

A vibrant handmade iron candlestick inspired by the cultures of the Amazon basin.

Tambo No. 1 is individually crafted, featuring an expressive arrangement of multicolored tagua beads—natural seeds often referred to as “vegetable ivory,” sustainably sourced from palm trees in the Amazon rainforest. Each composition is intentionally varied, ensuring that no two pieces are ever alike.

The handcrafted iron structure provides a grounded, sculptural base, while the organic rhythm of the tagua beads introduces movement, color, and cultural depth. This interplay between raw metal and natural material creates a piece that feels both artistic and deeply connected to nature.

Striking as a standalone object and even more compelling when grouped, Tambo No. 1 brings warmth, identity, and a sense of story into any space.
