A mini turtle pendant pcs in amazonite at 1.5 inches — small enough to close a hand around.
Amazonite is a feldspar, not a quartz, and it behaves differently under the tool: it cleaves along flat internal planes instead of fracturing. The white streaking through the blue-green is a second feldspar grown into the first, which is why the pattern looks woven rather than banded.
Animal subjects are judged on stance before detail. The weight has to sit right in the legs and shoulders, because a stone animal that looks unbalanced stays looking wrong no matter how fine the surface work is.
