A-me-so-li
First off, serpentine is a type of mineral that can come in a variety of colors such as green, brown, or even black. It's known for its smooth texture and ability to take on different patterns and swirls. The details are simply stunning! From the intricate shell design to the adorable little legs and head, every aspect of the turtle is painstakingly crafted with precision and care. The serpentine brings out a sense of depth and richness to the piece, adding an earthy touch.
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.
