Tart, nostalgic, and unmistakably Filipino, this piece captures the tamarind — a cooking staple ingredient, at its most revealing moment — the pod split open, its golden exterior curling back to expose a row of smoky quartz gems nestled inside like seeds cradled in pulp. Feathery tamarind leaves and a delicate stem complete this homage to a fruit as familiar as the smell of a Filipino kitchen.
Part of the Salo collection, this piece celebrates the flavors that define Filipino memory — the sour, the sweet, and the simple joy of sharing both.
Handcrafted in sterling silver with gold accents and back-set gemstones. Designed to be worn as both a brooch pin and a pendant necklace.
