Found this cute little guy at an antique shop in a small town in TX. I never go antiquing.... But when I do, I buy turtles :p

It is hand carved.

That is awesome!!! Just beautiful.

The little greenhouse where I pick up my CSA package each week has cute little carved rock turtles. Different sizes and shapes, priced from $7 -22. I have a hard time passing them up each week. I do have a little collection growing in my front flower garden. But I cant justify spending the money. Besides, just more stuff to move to FL in a year. Maybe I'll find them at flea markets down there!

Thanks guys! I definitely thought it was a unique find :) it sits on our mantel. My husband politely asked if we were now going to be collecting turtles, I told him this was a one time thing :p. although I've been eyeing some really pretty turtle statues for my garden!
