My Current Tortoise Shell Obsession

I have recently discovered the beauty of tortoise shell jewelry.  To me, they are a swirl of the colors brown and black  in a glossy marble or sometimes a matte finish. Tortoise shell gives a piece of jewelry a bit of elegance and class. Usually they are not real tortoise shell and have a modern or vintage touch to them. Here are some examples of the unique look off tortoise shell jewelry
