The Embera are famous for their tatoo
work. The dye is made from the jagua
fruit found in the jungle. It stains the skin
and lasts a good two weeks! Most
tourists want a sample of this Embera
artwork to wear home!

The Embera are not only great hosts, but
also quite skilled at carving, basket
weaving, and beadwork. Here are many little
carvings made from the tagua nut. They
especially look cool as necklaces!

Here are more crafts from the Embera people...
proud of their craft work, body tatoos, and
colorful clothing. But really, best of all are their
smiles and genuine enjoyment of sharing their
culture with others.
