KAMBO FROG FAIR-TRADE CHRISTMAS TREE ORNAMENT FROM THE PERUVIAN AMAZON

This special fair-trade ornament represents the kambo (giant leaf) frog from the Peruvian Amazon rainforest. Traditional healers carefully scrape an exudafte from the frog's skin and use it potent ceremonies. This multi-colored frog will look great hanging on your Christmas tree, car mirror, or adding a unique conversation starter to your home. These ornaments are handmade by Peruvian Amazon artisans from natural chambira palm fiber. The sale of these ornaments supports forest conservation and helps meet local needs in traditional communities in Peru. These ornaments were made by artisans from the communities along the Maranon River. Each ornament comes with a tag listing the name and village of the artisan who made it and the plants used to make it. These kambo frogs come in green versions which closely represent the actual frog and a few other fantasy versions in other colors. Please remember that each ornament was hand-made by the artisan so the exact design and color combination may vary from the ones shown in the model photo.
