Nangka wood is wood from the Jackfruit tree. It has a warm yellow brown or golden brown coloring. The beads are hard, smooth, with a loose, wood grain that can be easily seen in the beads. They have an understated polish which allows them to retain a very natural and organic appearance. Wood beads look great with a wide variety of metals. Try pairing them with semiprecious stones, shell, bone, and other natural materials. And, a bonus, the larger holed beads are perfect for crochet, macrame, and craft projects.
Note: The color of Nangka wood can vary, and your beads may be slightly lighter or darker than those in the pictures.

These particular beads are handcrafted in the Philippines, coming to you from a family that has 30 years of expertise in making wood beads.
