Petroglyph Turtle Charm Sterling Silver | Southwestern Jewelry | Made in USA

Drawn from the rock art of the ancient Southwest, this Petroglyph Turtle charm is cast in .925 sterling silver and Made in USA. At 2.6 grams and 1-1/4" x 1", the geometric, stylized turtle design carries an authenticity that polished realism cannot replicate.

Each piece is individually hand-finished — filed, sanded, and polished through progressive stages. The matte-to-bright contrast highlights the etched petroglyph lines against the smooth silver surface.

Petroglyphs found across New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah date back thousands of years. The turtle appears frequently in these sites, symbolizing Mother Earth, patience, and the connection between water and land.

A meaningful choice for Southwestern art enthusiasts, turtle collectors, or anyone drawn to ancient visual traditions. Sterling silver jump ring included and attached for bracelet, pendant, or earring use.
