Some First Nations traditional beliefs include a creation story where turtle was there in the beginning, carrying the knowledge and teachings of all ancestors on its back. Robert Michael Weahkee's burnished antler
Turtle's carapace and skin is beautifully detailed. Determined eyes are from turquoise inlays, while a little offering necklace is made with generous lapis lazuli, refreshing aquamarine and invigorating apatite beads. We can enhance a turtle's or tortoise's natural habitat by leaving leaf litter in place and avoiding pesticides. About 4" long, 1 1/2" wide and 1 3/4" tall.
