Set in rhodium-plated 925 Sterling Silver, the koa wood turtle necklace pairs a polished honu pendant with Koa wood inlays shaped as a turtle shell for a look rooted in Hawaiian jewelry.

With a polished finish, tarnish-resistant rhodium plating, and a silver box chain in three lengths, it suits daily wear, gifting, and anyone drawn to tropical wood jewelry, unique animal jewelry, or an ocean lover gift with easy island style.
