Inner Turtle Shell Cuff
This striking cuff was cast directly from the inner structure of a real turtle shell—featuring the natural ribbing and spine that echo the turtle’s deep connection to Earth and time. No turtle was harmed in the making of this piece. The shell was respectfully sourced as a medicine supply from a Native American vendor at a powwow, then carefully cut to preserve and honor its powerful geometry.
Turtle medicine represents protection, longevity, and the wisdom of moving through life at your own sacred pace. Wearing the inner shell invites you to embody grounded strength, carry your truth within, and trust the rhythm of your personal evolution.
Crafted from our signature reclaimed metal blend of copper and zinc—with zero nickel, lead, or plating—this cuff holds a warm, earthy energy. While slightly malleable, it is solid and structured, meant to feel like a protective shell around your wrist—resilient, rooted, and symbolic.
