Delicately hand-beaded, these lilac and black turtle earrings symbolize protection, endurance, and connection to the land. Each tiny bead is carefully woven to form the recognizable shell pattern of a turtle — a sacred being in many Indigenous traditions representing life and longevity. Lightweight and full of character, they bring meaning and beauty to any outfit.
