Pieces with a sustainable outlook
Our project began by collaborating with artisans from the Kichwas and Incas in Ecuador and Peru. Our pieces reflect their traditional handmade work with a unique spin on design to meet our current everyday needs. Their materials have been used for centuries with handmade techniques, designs, and colors that transmit their cultures. By purchasing Terra Natural Designs, you contribute to preserving the cultural heritage of future generations of South American artisans.
Let's think differently about fashion
Seeds, berries & nuts
Indigenous cultures have used seeds to craft jewelry and carry their medicinal plants with them for centuries. The seeds, berries, and nuts we use, such as tagua, huayruro, and açaí, come from the rainforest.
Using these materials gives economic value to the trees and supports the preservation and replanting of the native flora of the rainforest.

Protecting the Amazon Rainforest
The seeds we use for our pieces sustain the preservation and replanting of the palm trees, helping to protect the Amazon Rainforest and supporting indigenous communities from the Amazon. By using renewable and ethically sourced products, we help preserve the Rainforest and the cultural heritage of its people.

Indigenous knowledge
We can help protect the knowledge of the indigenous cultures
It seems so simple: “it’s just jewelry and accessories”. The indigenous people don’t see it like that. Everything they wear is carefully crafted, and it carries meaning through the materials, the sacred patterns and colors, and through their own connection to all of this.

Original art, preserved in every piece
Our accessories are made to preserve the original art and handwork of the indigenous cultures we work with. Kichwa (Quechua), Achuar, and Shuar are some of the South American native groups we work with. Their art is printed in each piece to allow our customers to experience a new way of accessorizing with meaningful and soulful pieces. By supporting Terra Natural Designs, you are helping preserve the Kichwa, Shuar, and Achuar cultures.
