My sea turtle images were originally inspired by a trip to a sea turtle rehabilitation facility in Topsail, North Carolina. I was absolutely captivated by these wonderful creatures and knew that they needed to make their way into my work. Since then, they have earned a permanent spot in my collections.

These sterling silver earrings are made using the ancient techniques of chasing and repousse, which uses nothing but an hammer and small blunt tools to sculpt the image. They are approximately 1/2 inch across and hang 1-3/4 inches.
