Wa-lace

This turtle carved of red onyx is a true masterpiece that emanates both elegance and charm. The etched design adds an additional layer of beauty, with specks of inlaid turquoise within the etching design, this turtle becomes even more impressive, as the contrast between the deep red tones and the serene blue accents creates an eye-catching display. 

Turtle (Edo:wa): Turtle has always been esteemed because it carries its home on its back and goes with the flow of the river, not against it. In some mythologies, the first North Americans envisioned the continent as a turtle because it was surrounded by water. Turtle reminds us to respect Mother Earth.
