Medici Turtle Salt Holder

Handcrafted in Florence, our Medici Turtle Salt Holder features a sculptural shell lined in luminous 18k yellow gold, resting atop a detailed Medici turtle base. Designed as both a functional table objects and decorative heirloom, each piece reflects the rich artistic tradition and craftsmanship of the Florentine ateliers we work with.

The turtle has long symbolized longevity, stability, protection, and wisdom — motifs deeply associated with the Medici family and Renaissance decorative arts. Combined with the shell form, traditionally linked to hospitality and the sea.

Available in silver-plated bronze and 925 sterling silver.
