  rdf:value "Vegetable ivory or tagua nut is a product made from the very hard white endosperm of the seeds of certain palm trees. Vegetable ivory is named from its resemblance to animal ivory. This material is hard and heavy, and has a cream colour; when polished, it is quite similar to true ivory (hence the name vegetable ivory), although the materials differ in their properties. The \"rediscovery\" of a sustainable source of vegetable ivory has aroused a growing worldwide interest in this material."@en ;
