Aqua Blue Marble Trutle by Corwin Yamutewa

$ 105.00

An aqua blue marble turtle with jet inlaid eyes that look slightly to the left side. Carved by Corwin Yamutewa, the turtle is very personable and has scutes incised on the shell in high relief. Indigenous people recognize the turtle as the symbol of Mother Earth - some Native Americans believe that the turtle contributed to creation because the turtle dove into the primeval waters to retrieve mud to create Mother Earth. The turtle is regarded as a skillful navigator through life's difficulties. Turtle medicine teaches one to go with the flow.
