Diamond and Ruby Tortoise
Diamond and Ruby Tortoise
"I will never not curate a turtle carved in gold. There's something about them, the significance, the slowness, the quiet luck of them, that I can't pass up. This one is on a slider, so he hugs the chain and sits close to the skin, exactly where a piece like this wants to be. And the ruby eyes. A small, perfect touch."
— Megan, founder & curator
A gold tortoise charm with ruby eyes and a diamond-set shell. Small, considered, full of character. The kind of piece that arrives already knowing it's beautiful.
Tortoises have been quietly lucky in jewelry for centuries. Symbols of long life, patience, slow forward motion. This one wears its symbolism lightly. The ruby eyes are warm, not severe. The diamonds along the shell catch the light without trying. Detail you'll notice the first time, and notice differently every time after.
