Chrysocolla Horse by Leland Boone

A striking muted lime green and vibrant blue green streaked cyrysocolla sea turtle with coral inlaid eyes carved by Leland Boone. There are five coral dots inlaid on the turtle's back symbolizing rain drops we have been told. Indigenous people recognize the turtle as the symbol of Mother Earth - some Native Americans believe that the turtle contributed to creation because the turtle dove into the primeval waters to retrieve mud to create Mother Earth. The turtle is regarded as a skillful navigator through life's difficulties. Turtle medicine teaches one to go with the flow.
