Fynbos is a distinctive type of vegetation found only on the southern tip of Africa. It includes a wide range of Heather like trees and shrubs including the well-known Protea family.
After being farmed and harvested, the Fynbos is dried, dyed and compressed under great pressure to form blocks of wood. These are then skillfully carved into several beautiful designs. In some designs the FynbosGems are framed and marked in sterling silver.
