Peace Turtle Pouch

The turtle is one of the four auspicious creatures, symbolizing "wishing for turtles, wishing for treasures, and wishing for peace." The traditional "Begging the Turtle" festival in Penghu is a way to pray for safety and peace. This tradition continues today, with the "turtles" evolving over time. Early versions were made of dried fish skin, which didn't last long. Later, rice turtles became popular, and the tradition has since evolved into various materials like "money turtles," "gold turtles," "rice turtles," "jelly turtles," "brown sugar cake turtles," and "noodle turtles." ➡️ The "Peace Turtle" Pouch transforms Penghu's unique "Begging the Turtle" culture into a practical everyday accessory, bringing you joy and a safe journey wherever you go. ➡️ Each "Peace Turtle" pouch is 100% handmade, so no two are exactly alike!
