This guy is one of my favorites. The Sterling turtle is hand fabricated from strips of silver and silver sheet and inlaid with Maligano and Leopard-skin jaspers. He has both a pin back and hidden bale, so can be worn as either a brooch or pendant. I have included some process shots here, and you may notice that in the earlier stages, he has 2 front fins, but only one in the final piece. I thought the back front fin looked wierd after set with stone, so I removed it. This is a unique piece of wearable art!
