Our miniature huayruro seeds come pre-drilled with a hole lengthwise through the middle for use in stringing. They can also be used in ceremony. The name "Huayruro" derives from the seed of the Huayruro plant (Ormosia sp) that grows in the Amazon rainforest. This seed is characterized by being part red and part black, visually suggesting complementary and duality. Perhaps due to this unusual natural characteristic there has been the belief among Peruvians that these Huayruro seeds have the dual power to attract good fortune and ward off evil spirits.

NOTE: Huayruro seeds (the red and black seeds in some of the jewelry) are known to be poisonous if ingested. We recommend that any jewelry with huayruro seeds be kept away from children.
