Red Coral and Sterling Silver Turtle Pendant and Necklace Set - Sea Life

This red coral pendant and earrings set is in extremely good condition and looks and feels substantial yet is not large, nor small -- it's just right, as Goldilocks would say.  Pictured below simply, showing the fronts and backs.  I'm pricing this set at $50 (includes shipping*), and hope there's someone out there swimming around the Internet who loves turtles or someone who does.  It would make a lovely gift to self or another.  

I'd like to include here a little story:  From the fall of 2020 until the end of fall 2022, I assisted a woman who had sought assistance with a parent's care.  I'd ultimately be very appreciated for "navigation", education, and talking through situations as well as preparing them for next steps.  And once those next steps would be prudent to take, nudging them.  My years of experience, both professionally and personally, as a daughter of a parent with a similar condition and assisting through life's end lead me to have confidence to make the nudges boldly, when resistance would come initially.  I knew I was doing them a service, despite their caregiver fatigue.  We'd have spurts of activity, I'd be compensated, and I'd think I'd maybe not be utilized again.  But then I would.  When what turned out to be the next to the last mail to arrive in my mailbox from them, I saw it was a card's envelope.  Opening it, I'd find a turtle image and these words:  

Advise from a Sea Turtle

Swim with the current

Be a good navigator

Stay calm under pressure

Be well traveled

Think long term

Age gracefully

Spend time at the Beach! 

Inside, I'd find written: Mardy - thanks for being a "Sea Turtle" for us as we travel these unchartered waters! God Bless - (daughter) and (mother)

More than once, in the time between that card's arrival and the grand finale, beautifully handled with a local hospice's help which I'd nudged on at the right time, I'd be out looking for jewelry or other small treasures to provide at Lumigrate to my customers and get a text asking for a phone call ASAP.  I'd be able to get out to my car and have the phone conversation needed at the time.  I was seeing this work!  This combination of providing beautiful things to people for themselves or others, a new addition for me in 2022, along with my "other calling".  

I hope you enjoyed the additional story on this topic.  What made this even more substantial to me was I'd share the card's words with someone very special who was around in person in my life during the years I was still working as an occupational therapist, then while I started Lumigrate -- they offered a hand for a while, too.  It turned out a very close family member's animal totem is the turtle!  I felt THAT was confirmation, late in 2022, that I'm doing the right thing melding these means to an end.  

Thanks for reading.  I look forward to whomever wishes to purchase these reaching out!  ~ Mardy
