Garnet necklace in a silver sea turtle design features this rich, deep gemstone in the center of this sea turtle's swirling ocean wave center. Garnet (in all of its naturally occurring colors) is the birthstone for the month of January and this garnet sea turtle necklace is a great birthday necklace with the traditional crimson garnet or the vivid raspberry-red rhodolite garnet.
This sea turtle pendant features our original swirl sea turtle design, originally hand carved from wax then cast in solid sterling silver. This variation is set with a genuine, sparkling 3mm gemstone in a sleek bezel setting.

Sea turtles have been around for many years before humans and as such, are a symbol in many cultures of longevity, endurance, patience, and wisdom. The sea turtle is a creature of two elements; land and sea and as such, she reflects an ability to adapt and flourish in any environment and feel “at home”- as the turtle carries her home on her back.
Turtle symbols are often worn as a totem or talisman of good luck, longevity, wisdom, balance, nurturing, patience, resilience, slowing down and trusting your intuition and inner guide. Just like the ancient Petroglyph drawings, the swirl symbolizes balance, expanding awareness, the endless journey of life and the constant progress and evolution of the Universe.
The pendant measures 5/8" long, and has a hidden bail behind the flipper so she looks like she's swimming around your neck! One of FantaSea's very first designs, and inspired by our sea turtle conservation work in the US Virgin Islands, this turtle pendant comes on a lightweight (yet sturdy), 16", 18" or 20" sterling silver chain (you can also order pendant only).
