A mini turtle pendant pcs in amethyst at 1.5 inches — small enough to close a hand around.

Amethyst is quartz that took its purple from traces of iron and natural irradiation deep underground. The colour almost always arrives in zones rather than evenly, so a carving cut across those zones shows bands of deep violet running into near-clear quartz.

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.
