This turtle pendant is a statement piece: every detail — from the hexagonal shell to the legs and head — is cast and hand-finished with precision in Taxco's workshops. At just 3 cm long, it's striking enough to be noticed around your neck, yet discreet enough to wear every day. The turtle, in pre-Hispanic and worldwide tradition, symbolizes longevity, protection, and wisdom — three reasons to carry it with you.

Sterling .925 with its hallmark guarantees authenticity. The combined technique (casting + hand finishing) ensures each pendant has character: shadows and reflections make every piece unique. It is the result of Taxco's silversmith craft, where for 500 years the art of turning silver into stories has been perfected and passed down through generations.

Born in Taxco, Guerrero — the world's capital of artisanal silverwork — this pendant carries five centuries of mastery with it. Here, in the hands of craftspeople trained in the trade, silver is not merely melted: in it is told the patience, knowledge, and dedication of a community that breathes silver.

A: No. Sold as pendant only, 3 cm long. You can use your own chain or select one from our collection.

A: Yes, 3 cm in length — about the size of a large coin, but taller. Perfect to be seen on your neck without overwhelming.
