The Embera are a Panamanian ethnic group whose products include carved and painted Tagua palm seeds (Phytelephas seemannii). There are no detailed descriptions of these carved seeds, so here I describe the carvings, based on 826 carved seeds offered for sale on-line. Most are realistic and represent frogs, followed by hummingbirds, jaguars, geckos and parakeets. Invertebrates, flowers and humans are rare. Usually each seed represents a single individual; few represent the animals behavior. The dominant colors are brown and yellow, followed by green and the natural color of the seed. Prices range from $ 25 to $ 45 but complex sculptures can exceed $ 100. With their realistic representation of individual animals in the seeds, Panamanian embera have developed a cultural product that differs from large and stylized Tagua sculptures made elsewhere and that has potential for a sustainable use of the rainforest.
