About

The Star Tortoise Clasp Bracelet draws inspiration from the revered Indian Star Tortoise, embodying auspiciousness, good fortune, and symbols of luck, happiness, and prosperity in Indian culture.

This piece ingeniously utilizes the layered effect of oxidized silver to showcase the intricate radial patterns synonymous with the star tortoise shell. By integrating the tortoise shell structure with bead chains, we elevate a simple necklace into a detailed masterpiece. Beyond aesthetics, our design serves a higher purpose—encouraging appreciation for endangered wildlife. The Indian Star Tortoise, classified as "Vulnerable" in the IUCN Red List, deserves our attention and protection. This jewelry piece is a meaningful effort to raise awareness about wildlife conservation.

Crafting the radiating patterns posed a challenge in replicating intricate details on a small clasp. Our design journey involved experimenting with complex raised patterns, but it wasn't capturing the essence of the tortoise shell's beauty. Thus, we opted for a starburst effect and applied a concave treatment to emphasize the radiating pattern. The layered effect of oxidized silver became our artistic ally, achieving the desired result. This necklace/bracelet is not merely an accessory but a testament to our commitment to environmental conservation and the celebration of the Indian Star Tortoise’s natural beauty.
