Great gift idea for the turtle enthusiast, keepsake collector, MCM era admirer, lover of brass, or someone you thought had EVERYTHING until you realize they indeed need a brass turtle keepsake to adorn their entry table!

The sheen can be adjusted of course by simply polishing the brass with a soft clothe with or without a brass polish solution.
Due to the varying preference as far as brass sheen, I have not polished this item. If you chose to purchase and want a shiny brassy mirror like sheen you may request the same with your payment and I will polish before I mail out. This will only delay shipping by a day at most. less
