From 20 to 35mm in length, a bull's eye collection for unique creations in natural materials. 9 varieties: Mucuna urens, Mucuna diplax, Mucuna macrocarpa, Mucuna paniculata, Mucuna interrupta, Mucuna gigantea, Macropsychanthus megacarpus, Macropsychanthus wilsonii, Macropsychanthus comosus.

There are a hundred species of Mucuna and about fifty species of Macropsychanthus, all producing marble-like seeds particularly hard. English common names include bull’s eye seed, hamburger bean or sea purse depending on the variety.

Traditionally kept in homes, in the pocket or as a necklace to ward off the evil eye, it is considered a real lucky charm in many parts of the world: the West Indies, South America and even northern Europe when they fail on a beach after a long trip.
