This 1 3-4" goldtone sea turtle brooch has real gemstone accents of peridot body & ruby eyes, reissued by the co-partner of Edward Swoboda who designed this turtle in the 1960s

He's very cool ! Love the beads on his shell.
Stunning cabochon gemstones and ruby eyes!
The ball like cabochons work beautifully on the turtle masterpiece, perfection !~
I'm with them .
The green cabochons are so beautifully and densely packed.
Very cool turtle, love the way his fins/flippers are tucked in. Gives the impression he's zooming through the coral reefs. His shell is cool too, very spiky and sharp looking! :)
Many thanks everyone for the thoughtful love

Mike thanks so much for your terrific comment & I think he's a pretty cool little guy as well :) I love that unusual shell too, it's a very unique design and that always appeals to me
Thank you DejaVu for your awesome comment about the pretty stones, Swoboda loved to use green gemstones (jade was a favorite, but peridot too) and in this case a natural choice for a turtle
Phil thank you for your marvelous praise for this fellow, when I see him I think of sea roe, which is actually perfect for his ocean habitat :)
Thank you Karen for your fabulous comment and yes isn't the body beautifully different, I almost went with a Swoboda elephant but this guy was quite striking
Lauren you have painted a lovely image for me of this turtle skimming the coral reefs, thank you for your delightful comment! I too think his little golden flippers are cute & so detailed, and that shell is so pretty
Thank you kivatinitz for the love for this turtle, it's always most gratefully appreciated
