Height-46mm ~ Width-30mm ~ Material-Copper
This charming small copper turtle pendant, designed by Patricia Healey, is perfect for a necklace design of 24 inches or shorter. The turtle shell features a delightful texture, achieved through a combination of hand stamping and the repoussé technique, which lifts the metal from the reverse side to give the shell its form. Crafted from pure copper with a brass accent, this pendant pops with rustic elegance. The red patina, created through fire torching and sealed with lacquer, adds a vibrant touch. The bail is cleverly soldered onto the back at an angle, giving the turtle a sense of motion as it sits on your necklace. This handcrafted, original design is a wonderful piece for turtle collectors and ocean lovers alike.
Here’s a fun fact: The temperature of the sand where sea turtles lay their eggs determines the sex of the hatchlings. Wow!
