Turtle from Julie Czerneda's Books
Nov. 19th, 2018 08:26 pmI'm back from an excellent World Fantasy Con and more or less recovered.
I now have a good photo of this design thanks to Julie's husband. Sheila Gilbert from DAW press commissioned this pendant (quite a while ago) for Julie. It's from the ongoing story in her two novels, "A Turn of Light" and "A Play of Shadow". The turtles appear to be stepping stones to the protagonists who are fleeing. Then as the turtles rear up in the water, they barely make it across. The books are wonderful in their originality and concepts.
The pendant has the water as the turtle rears up. The eyes are rubies and it's sterling and about 2.5" long.
I'm doing some of my catch up work and coping with our very bad air. I can't solder or polish til it clears.
