Inspired by ocean life and coastal scenery, this sun catcher features a graceful sea turtle swimming above seashells, coral, and flowing underwater details. The layered design gives the piece a calm, beachy feel while capturing the beauty of marine life.

The reflective background creates soft iridescent colors throughout the design, adding a bright ocean-inspired shimmer when displayed in the light.
