Sea Turtles spend most of their lives out in the great oceans. When they nest ashore, hatched eggshells provide nourishment to dune plant life such as beach grasses that in turn, help stabilize the coasts and prevent erosion. Maxx Laate’s turquoise-eyed sea turtles hunt for fish, swimming with powerful fore and hind flippers. Carved with a great sense of movement from one handsome specimen of antler, masterfully detailed carapaces with scutes are visually stunning, as are the scaled flippers. About 2 3/4″ tall, 2 3/4″ wide and 1 5/8″ deep.
