This special fair-trade ornament represents a poison-arrow frog from the Peruvian Amazon rainforest. Native people gave it this name because they can carefully remove some of the liquid that exudes from their skin and apply it to the tips of arrows that will paralyze their prey. 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.
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. Most models have a latch on the side that allows them to be opened.
