Named after Urucum, the Brazilian Portuguese word for annatto, this decorative shadow box celebrates one of the Amazon’s most iconic natural elements. Traditionally, annatto seeds have been used by Indigenous peoples of the Amazon rainforest as a natural pigment for body painting and ceremonial markings, as well as a colouring and flavouring ingredient in cooking. Renowned for its rich red-brown hue, the annatto seed is a symbol of cultural heritage, nature, and craftsmanship.
This handcrafted shadow box frame features authentic annatto seeds displayed within a compact presentation frame, finished in a distinctive Jatobá-stained wood tone. Designed as a collectible decorative object, it brings a touch of Amazonian inspiration and natural beauty to any interior.
