These 20 turtle-shaped beads were handmade by Peruvian artesanos from "alpaca silver," an alloy of nickel, copper, and zinc. They will not tarnish like silver.
These beads are 10 mm long, 6 mm wide, 4 mm thick. The holes are about 1 mm in diameter. They run horizontally, across the bellies of the turtles.
