This cute Sterling Silver Tuatara Pendant or Charm is intriguing both open and closed.

When worn closed, at the bottom of the pendant you can see a wee tuatara head poking out. Open it up to show the complete reptile in all his glory!

The Tuatara is only found in New Zealand, and then only on outer islands which are kept predator-free. The Tuatara is the only living relative of a group of reptiles that roamed the earth at the same time as dinosaurs. It has survived whilst its relatives died out 60 million years ago, and it hasn't changed its form in all that time.

The other amazing fact about Tuatara is that the temperature at which its eggs are incubated influences the sex of the hatchlings.

This high quality Tuatara pendant or charm measures nearly 3/4' (18mm) long. It is proudly made in New Zealand to the highest standards. Heirloom quality, it will stand the test of time, just like the tuatara!
