Quartz turtle carvings (Clear)

Rock crystal Quartz turtle carvings

Not my usual sort of product, but lets gloss over that and jump straight in.

This is a turtle carved from rock crystal - clear Quartz.

Perfect for animal lovers, turtle fans, collectors of carved Quartz animals - take your pick.

It'll exist even longer than an actual turtle, which I recently found out can live for hundreds of years!

However, the Quartz turtle is certainly easier to look after than a real one, I hope.

So, the turtle... up close, the carving isn't perfect; the Quartz has some fractures and inclusions, but nothing you'll spot from any normal distance - from a foot or two away its very clearly a turtle.

The eyes aren't perfectly level, and the carving has all clearly been done with hand held tools, rather than a CNC machine of some kind.

I don't mind the flaws, personally. A machine that produces thousands of identical pieces doesn't interest me very much. Maybe you're different.

The turtle, whose name is currently 'Turt Reynolds', is approx 11CM from tail to nose, around 7CM wide and 5CM tall. He weighs around 430 grams. You can change his name though, because I know I'm not funny.
