"I create necklaces, bracelets, and rings using eco-friendly components such as tagua nuts, wood, horn, bone, recycled glass, and recycled paper. Tagua nuts, which is my primary medium, are sustainably harvested from the rainforests in Colombia. The nuts help to save the rainforests by utilizing a natural by-product of the trees. I have a background in interior design and enjoy mixing colors and textures together. Each mosaic style necklace I create is one-of-a-kind." — Veronica Riley Martens
