Vintage 1960’s 18K Yellow Gold Pink Coral & Ruby Textured Turtle Brooch

A charming vintage turtle brooch dating to circa the 1960s, beautifully crafted in 18 karat yellow gold with a hand-carved natural pink coral shell. The domed shell features individually carved geometric segments, complemented by a richly textured gold body with finely detailed head, legs, and gracefully curved tail.
