Artisans dry the seed, use vegetable dyes for color and hand-carve the seed into the shapes that make up the bracelets.
During the month of October, Fair Trade Designs promises to donate 10 percent of the sale of each cuff to the Breast Cancer Research Fund, which the Charity Navigator rated at a low two stars.
