This large sea turtle pendant by Patricia Healey captures the graceful movement of a turtle gliding through the ocean. The bail is cleverly soldered at an angle on the back, giving the impression that the turtle is swimming mid-journey, reflecting their long migrations across vast waters. The shell's intricate patterns are created through hand stamping, while the body is formed using the traditional repoussé technique to lift and shape the copper from the reverse side. A flame-torched patina reveals natural variations of rich reds, rose tones, and warm copper highlights, sealed to preserve its vibrant beauty.
*Handmade and flame-finished, each piece will have its own unique color variation.

Care Instructions:
Spray a little Endust on a soft cloth and gently wipe your copper piece clean. It lifts away grit, lotion, sweat, even peanut butter (yes, really). Endust works wonders on metal, and over time it leaves behind a subtle wax buildup that helps protect the lacquer and enhance the shine.
Since lacquer can wear down from dry air or small scratches, this light cleaning method helps keep your copper looking vibrant while sealing over minor scuffs.
*Other spray polishes work too, but I stick with Endust. It's gentle, effective, and gives your copper a little extra oomph.
