I made this Box Turtle Necklace as an homage to all the turtles that used to wander into my backyard when I was a child and that I rarely see anymore. This turtle statement necklace features a tortoise pendant I hand-carved then cast and a green glass bead to add a pop of green like the grass these box turtles call home. Gold-colored turtle necklace is made with a solid bronze tortoise charm on a 20-inch 14k gold-filled chain. Silver necklaces are made with a solid sterling silver turtle on a 20-inch sterling silver chain. This turtle pendant is detailed at every angle and hangs in a way that shows off that aspect. It’s meant to spin around a little bit, almost like a tortoise on its back, and not to sit with the bottom against your chest. This necklace is also available without the green glass and strung with the chain through the charm to lay more flat I’d you prefer. Box Turtle Necklaces are nickel-free and come on a cute card back that makes them fun to gift. If you’d prefer a longer chain, you may add an extender to your order here: https://www.bangupbetty.com/shop/extenderI made this Box Turtle Necklace as an homage to all the turtles that used to wander into my backyard when I was a child and that I rarely see anymore.
