Product Description
Green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) are named, not because of the color of their shells, but, unfortunately, for the color of their flesh. Greens grow to nearly five feet in length, making them one of the worlds largest sea turtles. Adult greens can live for one hundred years! They are strict herbivores, feeding exclusively on marine algae and coastal sea grasses.Regrettably, all populations of green sea turtles, except those living in Australian waters, are listed as endangered. Greens have experienced steep declines in numbers from the harvesting of eggs, slaughter for meat and shells, and from drowning in fishing nets.This is a silver and enamel pin. Master artisans paint each article by hand using solutions containing colored granules of glass. Next, they fire the pieces in a kiln to produce an alluring richness of color. It measures approximately 5.8cm by 2.6cm.
