Discover the power of connection with this charming handmade talking turtle bolo necklace—a wearable conversation about one of nature's most fascinating discoveries: turtles actually talk to each other!

The Inspiration Behind the Design:

Did you know that turtles vocalize? Recent studies reveal that turtles produce chirps, grunts, and complex sounds to coordinate hatching, attract mates, and communicate with their young. This necklace celebrates that remarkable discovery, honoring the turtle's ancient wisdom and newly-understood voice.

🐢 Handmade ceramic turtle beads - Each 1/2" turtle is individually crafted and slightly unique
🖤 Premium 2mm black leather cord - Fine quality, durable, and comfortable
✨ Handmade Bali sterling silver slider - Layered, soldered spacer bead tower (each one different)
🔧 Fully adjustable - Slides to fit any neck size, pulls over head with 24" opening
🎨 Versatile styling - Wear as necklace, bracelet, armband, headband, or boot accessory
💬 Conversation starter - Share the fascinating turtle communication story

The Talking Turtle Story:

For years, scientists believed turtles communicated only through physical contact and visual cues like head bobbing. But recent research has revealed something amazing: turtles actually vocalize!

They produce a variety of sounds including:

  • Chirps
    • Used by hatchlings to coordinate emergence from eggs
  • Grunts

  • Complex vocalizations
    • For mating, expressing curiosity, or showing aggression

This discovery changed our understanding of these ancient creatures. Your talking turtle necklace celebrates this fascinating aspect of turtle behavior—a reminder that there's always more to learn about the natural world.

  • The antiqued finish adds character

Beautiful piece of work. Have received tons of compliments on my copper angel wings earrings. Thanks, Alexa. They’re lovely:heart:️

My wife received her bracelet and loved it. It is indeed beautiful and expertly crafted. She will enjoy wearing it for special occasions. Maybe everyday! Thank you again for your exquisite designs.

Appreciation for Your Beautiful Earrings

Dear Alexa,

I hope this message finds you well!
As a member of the Flip platform, I had the pleasure of selecting your stunning Purple and Yellow Flower Sterling Silver Earrings (AMD1152) from the ON THE HOUSE collection.

I wanted to share my delightful experience with the entire process. The shipping was impressively quick, which is often not the case with ON THE HOUSE products. The packaging was beautiful, with an envelope that matched the interior color perfectly. The attention to detail throughout the shipping process was evident, and opening the envelope felt like a special occasion—like unwrapping a birthday gift!

Inside, I found a lovely little bag housing the gorgeous earrings, complete with a brand logo sticker and a charming ribbon holding it all together. Everything was beautifully wrapped, and it was clear that a lot of love went into the presentation.

Upon receiving the earrings, I was captivated by their light and whimsical design. I immediately grabbed the business card included in the package to check out your website for more products. What a wonderful surprise! I was truly impressed by what I found and learned about your designs and vision.

I absolutely love my earrings and will definitely be back to purchase another piece, either on your website or through the Flip app. I also left my reviews via the Flip app under the username veganchefmayra, and you are welcome to check it out.

Thank you for creating such beautiful pieces and for a wonderful unboxing experience!

Thank for your kind words. I look forward to shopping with you again soon!

Warm regards
