Lowkey little thing
And that's one of my favorite types of stones: The subtle pieces with that hidden bit of luminance.This time, that means a turtle with a shiny behind (and the smallest bit on the front edge of the shell that I've had the worst time trying to photograph. Even with a new phone camera, the light has to hit it JUST right). For some reason, that makes it even more beautiful. It may always hold surprises for me.Shown atop one of my thumb stones for scale. They're small, but they're worth it.

Packaged and ready for gift giving...
I collect turtles, and I also collect different gems and crystals so this was a win win for me. What I didn't expect was the packaging. This little guy came in a velvet bag inside a box perfect for gift giving. It even comes with a little card that you can write a personal note in. If it weren't for the quality packaging, I might consider this a little pricey for what it is. I'm not overly impressed with the carving of the turtle itself, but I still like it. If you have a turtle collector or a gemstone collector, this would make a great gift.

I love this turtle.
When I received this, it was in a lace bag, inside a velvet bag, and inside a very nice box. The amethyst is a very nice chunk of crystal. The rugged cuts that form the turtle are carefully and concisely made. I love this little turtle. It's beautiful!!

Cute little turtle but mine could have used more smoothing out/sanding
This is a cute little turtle but the carving that was done isn't very smooth. I would have liked to see a little more 'sanding' going into the piece.The packaging, bag and card are a really nice touch and allows it to be presented as a gift easily.I just don't know if the whole set is worth the asking price.

Nice gift for turtle lovers
Great gift for turtle lovers or anyone taking a trip. Also comes with a card and nice carrying pouch. The face of the turtle is kind of hard to make out, but the shell looks nice. Loved the variety of stones that are available.

A beautiful and meaningful turtle that makes a very thoughtful gift
This little blue turtle is carved out of a marbled blue stone that looks more like sodalite than blue aventurine, but is still a lovely carving that is very dense and heavy despite its diminutive size. The turtle came inside a box and had a bag and a card included inside, but they had an unpleasant odor to them that was very off putting, so I simply discarded them. The turtle itself is well worth the asking price. I have no idea why the box and bag were smelly, but the turtle does not stink at all.
