TURTUOISE

In Spanish the word Tortuga is used for all turtles, tortoises and terrapins. At Cajuel, the word is Turtuoise. Historically and worldwide, human beings recognize these gentle cohabitants as signifying perseverance and longevity. Explore the Turtuoise turquoise turtle pendant family and feel the emotion of these endearing creatures. They have inspired a wide variety of beautiful jewelry in many styles. Ours is modern turtle jewelry, mostly silver turtle pendants. This silver enamel jewelry is an early modification of our basic Colora inverted gem shape mineral specimen jewelry. Take an enameled silver turtle pendant, put a very fine natural turquoise shell on it and you have the mother of all Cajuel modern turtle jewelry: Turtuoise, the turquoise turtle pendant! Modern turtle jewelry with a southwestern twist, desert Tortuoise? We have other twists, tourmaline tortoises and many more.

Our turquoise turtle pendant mothered a big family of modern turtle jewelry. We also have lapis, ammolite, mother of pearl and coral “shells” to name a few in our varied modern turtle jewelry. Colorful real glass enamel is hand applied upon them in Los Angeles, California. We also have cute little multi colored enamel silver turtle hatchlings linked together to make a bracelet and matching earrings.
