This Art Glass Sea Turtle Pendant Necklace by Independent Artisans, aptly named 'In the Ocean,' is a delicate and enchanting piece from Costa Rican artisan Guisselle Mora. The sea turtle pendant is delicately hand-blown from glass, evoking the serene beauty of the ocean with tiny bubbles created from the intricate crafting process. The pendant hangs on an adjustable cotton cord necklace in a soothing sky-blue color, allowing the wearer to find the perfect length. This piece is a beautiful expression of the artisan's faith, perseverance, and love for nature, and a reminder of the tranquil beauty found in the world's oceans.
Guisselle, a jewelry artisan from Costa Rica, discovered her passion as a child, captivated by her grandmother’s jewelry box and the beauty of gemstones. While her sister asked for toys, she longed for earrings with sky-blue stones and began crafting makeshift jewelry from discarded wires her father left behind. Her curiosity led her to study silversmithing formally, after years of trial and error guided by books and online tutorials. Today, she creates jewelry as both craft and expression, each piece infused with faith, perseverance, and care. Her daughters have also learned the art, continuing the family tradition she dreamed of building. Inspired by faith and the natural wonders of daily life, Guisselle aspires to teach other women silversmithing, empowering them to create and earn through jewelry. Her workshop represents not only artistry but also resilience and the belief that beauty can uplift families and communities.
This necklace is crafted from hand-blown glass and a cotton cord, measuring a length adjustable from 14 inches min L to 28 inches max L, with the pendant measuring 1.1 inches H x 1.2 inches W x 0.4 inches D.
