These red ear turtle shells are often used to make
medicine bags, talking sticks, and other craft projects. They come in a range of patterns as shown above.
The shells are measured straight down the middle from tip to tip and not along the curve of the shell.
The 5" to 7" shells are about 1/16"
thick and have a 1" opening.
Want to display your turtle shell? No problem! You can either drill a hole and hang it with a hook or nail, or attach a hanger to the back. We leave that part to you to keep the shells in their original condition and do not accept returns on any altered turtle shell. Don't worry, it's easy to add a hanger. Just head to your local hardware or arts store and check out the picture frame aisle. Ask a store associate for help, or consider using a plate hanger. It's a quick and simple way to showcase your unique purchase.
