Turtles

Welcome to the Turtles’ category of 7SEAS Jewelry, where you’ll find a wide variety of sterling silver jewelry charms, pendants, and beads all inspired by the majestic sea turtle. The category features six different types of turtles: the flatback turtle, hawksbill turtle, green sea turtle, loggerhead turtle, olive Ridley turtle, and Kemp’s Ridley turtle.

Let’s take a closer look at each of these turtles:

The flatback turtle, also known as the Australian flatback, is a unique species of sea turtle that is found exclusively in Australian waters. These turtles are known for their distinct, flat carapace, which gives them their name. They are also known for being one of the least studied sea turtle species, making them a fascinating subject for marine biologists and conservationists alike.

The hawksbill turtle, also known as the “tortuga,” is a critically endangered species of sea turtle found throughout the tropical waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. The hawksbill turtle is known for its beautiful, colorful carapace, which is often used in the production of jewelry and other decorative items. Unfortunately, the hawksbill turtle is heavily impacted by human activity, making conservation efforts for this species crucial.

The green sea turtle, also known as the “honu,” is a large sea turtle found throughout the tropical and subtropical waters of the world. The green sea turtle is named for the greenish color of its fat, which is a result of its herbivorous diet. These turtles are also known for their gentle nature and are considered sacred in many cultures. Unfortunately, green sea turtles are threatened by habitat destruction and overfishing.

The loggerhead turtle, also known as the “caretta caretta,” is a large sea turtle found throughout the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. The loggerhead turtle is known for its powerful jaws, which allow it to eat tough prey such as crabs and conchs. These turtles are also known for their long migrations, which can take them thousands of miles across the ocean. Unfortunately, loggerhead turtles are threatened by pollution, overfishing, and beach development.

The olive Ridley turtle, also known as the “pacific Ridley,” is a small sea turtle found throughout the tropical and subtropical waters of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The olive Ridley turtle is known for its mass nesting events, called “arribadas,” where thousands of females come ashore to lay their eggs at the same time. Unfortunately, olive Ridley turtles are threatened by overfishing, pollution, and the destruction of their nesting beaches.

The Kemp’s Ridley turtle, also known as the “Atlantic Ridley,” is the rarest and most endangered sea turtle in the world. Found in the Gulf of Mexico and along the Atlantic coast of the United States, these turtles are known for their small size and triangular head. Unfortunately, Kemp’s Ridley turtle are threatened by overfishing, pollution, and coastal development.
