Golden Grass (Capim Dourado in Portuguese) is a naturally colored golden plant that grows in the Jalapao region in the Brazilian Amazon. The women in the region weave the shimmering strands into eco-friendly jewelry and decorative items. The sales from these items provides an income for the women as well as preserving local customs and traditions.
