Natural Ourico / Qurico, approximately 7-10cm in size | Brazil Nut Shell
This exquisite exotic decoration is an authentic Stargazer Exotics Ourico / Qurico, crafted from nature's own Brazil nut shell. In its South American homeland, the robust shell of the Brazil nut tree is known as "Ourico Madeira Cup," although the tree itself is scientifically named Bertholletia excelsa. Each Brazil nut shell, which serves as the outer casing for this exotic fruit, is individually delivered. These Brazil nuts have been meticulously opened, revealing their heavily woody shells.
The Stargazer Exotics Ourico / Qurico, made from natural Brazil nut shells, measures between 7 and 10 centimeters in size. It's important to note that our Ourico / Qurico remains entirely natural, having not been subjected to any form of dyeing, bleaching, varnishing, or other chemical treatments. Due to the extreme hardness of Brazil nut shells, mechanical cutting tools are employed to open these natural wonders. Our authentic Stargazer Exotics Brazil nut shells are imported directly from Brazil, and when handled with care, they boast an impressive shelf life.
The genuine Stargazer Exotics Ourico / Qurico serves as a unique and versatile natural decorative element that can enhance both aquatic and and terrarium spaces. The opened Brazil nut shells from Stargazer Exotics are perfect for filling, planting, and display. They make excellent containers for small plants like cacti and succulents. Furthermore, these real Brazil nut shells are perfect for inclusion in terrariums, aquatic terrariums, aquariums, and aviaries. They can serve as food bowls, hiding spots, sleeping quarters, or shelters for reptiles, rodents, fish, and other inhabitants. Because the Brazil nut shell is left in its natural state, it poses no harm to animals.
The genuine Stargazer Exotics Ourico / Qurico, in its natural form, can be beautifully combined with other untreated natural decorative items available in the Stargazer Exotics online shop. These items include products made from materials such as coconut, cork oak, teak, and various other natural elements. It's worth noting that, being an entirely natural product, the size of the exotic Brazil nut shell may vary.
Brazil nuts are the fruits of the Brazil nut tree and are originally native to South America. Due to their exceptional hardness, they require tools like saws for opening. Only one creature, the agouti, approximately the size of a dog, possesses the ability to crack the Brazil nut shell with its teeth.
The Natural Ourico / Qurico is an excellent choice for decorating terrariums, aquatic terrariums, nagariums, aviaries, and can serve as a feeding bowl, house, shelter, or hiding place.
