Few creatures in the ocean carry the quiet magic of the sea turtle. They have navigated these waters for more than 100 million years — crossing entire ocean basins on instinct alone, returning season after season to the same beaches where they were born, moving through the blue with a slow and timeless grace that seems to belong to another world entirely. To see one in the wild is to feel, for just a moment, that the sea still holds mysteries we have not yet named.
This medallion captures that creature and that feeling — and it does so at our largest and most commanding size.
Nautora's Large Sea Turtle Necklace is a Guy Harvey original rendered in sterling silver with a unique relic antique finish — and at 35mm in diameter it is the most substantial sea turtle medallion in the collection. The sea turtle is rendered with the anatomical fidelity and artistic sensitivity that defines all of Guy Harvey's wildlife art. The rounded shell, the graceful flippers, the distinctive head — every characteristic detail of this magnificent animal has been captured in a medallion that carries genuine presence on the chest.
The relic antique finish is what gives this piece its exceptional depth and character. Rather than a uniform bright polish, the relic finish creates a richly dimensional surface — deepened in the recesses, brighter on the raised planes — giving the sea turtle's form a warmth and authenticity that makes it look like something treasured rather than just purchased. It wears differently in every light and develops a beautiful quality over time that only improves with age.
The medallion shape is inspired by the legendary Spanish treasure coins recovered from the wreck of the Atocha — smooth rounded edges with no sharp points or protruding elements, comfortable against the skin through a full day of wear. Turn it over and find Guy Harvey's famous signature in raised sterling silver lettering on the reverse — the mark of authenticity on a genuine piece of marine art.
At Nautora, we are the exclusive maker and seller of Guy Harvey jewelry and we hold every piece to the same heirloom standard. This sea turtle medallion is built to be worn every day and eventually passed down with pride.
