A turtle for my daughter
My daughter loves turtles. Not sure why, but she just loves them. Multiple soft-toys, posters etc. She loves Squirt in Finding Nemo. She had been begging for a turtle pet for ages, but we have not allowed it.
For her birthday, I decided to get her a turtle. This turtle will hold its value for many, many years.
I got her a hawksbill turtle from Heads or Tales.
.
This turtle has 10+ troy oz of silver content, made in 925 Sterling silver. Limited run of 1,000 pieces and comes with a CoA.
The details of the turtle is amazing. From the shell design, to its leathery flippers, even to the folds of its neck.
It does not look too pleased being handled by me...
And is probably cheesed off when I flipped it over!
It is in my daughter's room now, in a display cabinet. She cannot really play with it, but hopefully, in time, turns her towards more silvery items!!
Heads and Tails has amazing silver pieces, like this. Depending on the age of you daughter, she will be less or more excited in receiving not a live creature, but in the future she will love it;
Yes, she does not yet know the responsibilities of having a pet. Perhaps, when she is a little older.
Yes @khamen the Turtle was Cheesed Off when you flipped it onto its back........................
Hehe.... don't worry, it is happily sitting on its throne in my daughter's room now. Though it has a slightly permanent frown of not being in the water.
Wow, that's beautiful! I love it. I looked it up for myself, as I also love turtles. It's a little out of my means right now, but that's something for the wishlist down the road. And they made it out of .925 so it won't bend as easily as pure silver. That's really smart. Congrats on getting that, man. It's brilliant!
Yes, 925 is a smart choice for bigger pieces. I am sure you will get a piece down the road!!
It makes sense. The extra metals help it to be stronger so it continues to look like the shape you paid for, even years after you bought it.
I'd love to get one, but even $400 for one it out of my reach... for now. Eventually that will change. We're all in process and it's important to have goals, so we know where we want to end up. Thanks for helping inspire me.
That is a gorgeous piece. They do very nice work... I could spend my whole paycheck for many months at HoT.
Yes.... I am already holding back. I only buy when they have a sale!
The detail is amazing.
Look at that face! Hope she loves it. 🐢
Yes, she does!! Though she has not stopped asking for a turtle pet...
😄😂. Good luck with that part. Maybe put a nice pond in your yard and a wild turtle will just choose to live with you. 😉 It happened with my in-laws.
If I put a pond in my backyard, I will have to worry about my wife, not my daughter!!
