Regular price

In many Native American legends, the turtle is the symbol of Mother Earth – as is featured in this beautifully Hopi crafted sterling silver overlay ring featuring a large sea turtle with a vivid turquoise gemstone for the shell.
The large sized Indian made oval shaped ring is hand wrought of unmarked sterling silver, in the traditional Hopi “silver overlay” work, with shadowbox turtle design – bezel set with a flush cut turquoise stone featuring a faint honey colored matrix veining.
The face of the ring measures a generous 1&5/16 of an inch wide by 1&5/8 inches high, measures a size 8.25 on my ring mandrel, and weighs 20.5 grams.
