Description
The Tabou, Vanuatu’s sign of protection, one of the island’s oldest carved forms, in 9K yellow gold on a half-cylinder of natural stone. Each motif is mounted on a slim hook.
The stone is cut by our lapidaries in Port Vila and the motif set over it by hand, so each piece is unique. Choose any of our 16 hand-cut gemstones, or bone (polished pig tusk): the price is the same whichever you pick, and the colour and pattern of a natural stone always vary a little.
Available in Petit Modèle (small) and Grand Modèle (large). Pieces not in the showroom are made to order in about one week. Handmade in our Port Vila workshop, Vanuatu. Store it on its own; a soft cloth brings back the shine. If you choose turquoise, malachite, black or red coral, or bone (pig tusk), keep it away from perfume and seawater.
