Turtle Earrings — Three Sisters Swimming South

About this piece

Three little turtles, heading the same direction, taking their sweet time — just like they should. These long dangle earrings feature three carved howlite sea turtle beads in a rich turquoise blue, each one showing off detailed shell and flipper carving. Between each turtle sits a faceted light blue crystal bicone spacer and a small round turquoise-toned bead, giving the whole piece a rhythm as it moves. Silver-tone fish hook ear wires. These hang approximately 3.5 inches from the ear wire to the bottom turtle — they have presence and they know it. Sold as a pair. Handmade by an Indigenous artist — each piece is unique and will never be replicated. Turtle medicine is patience, persistence, and carrying your home wherever you go. I sat with these ones for a while. They felt right when they were done, and that's how I knew they were yours. If you're reading this, anyway.

Care: Keep away from water and perfume. Seed beads are durable but the thread that holds them is not invincible — treat gently.
