Bah-be-lou

Keith Bobelu's creation does not disappoint. The half light green, half dark serpentine turtle with turquoise eyes is a stunning example of his craftsmanship. The contrasting colors of the serpentine create a visually striking design that immediately catches the eye, while the delicate detailing brings the turtle to life. The addition of the turquoise eyes adds a pop of color and depth to the piece, making it truly unique. 

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.
