The turtle, keya, carries the weight of the world on its back. The symbolism of the turtle was honored by the Northern Plains tribes because it represented good health, longevity and perseverance. By wearing the turtle symbol you ask that you and your loved ones receive the same protection, good health and long life the shell gives the turtle.
Zephier captures the beauty of the turtle in this brass and sterling silver pendant. The shell of the turtle is a cowrie shell. Pendant measures, 1.5 x 2.25 inches and hangs beautifully on a 18 inch long sterling silver chain with lobster claw clasp.
