If you have visited the "Real Old Seashells" section of my shop before, you know that I have an affinity for old shells & coral, left behind by beachcombers from another day & time. These sea finds only get better with time and old shells often have a patina that can not be matched in todays shell shops. I came upon a treasure trove of seashells & coral from an old collection. I will be listing all of them. A sampling can be seen in photo 5.
This listing is for a wonderful almost fossil like murex shell, worn & textured by the elements. I love what the sea and time do together! Lots of spikey holey textures with remnants of the original spikes. The pink inside is a lovely matte shade and pops against the white body of the shell. This listing is for the exact shell seen in photos 1-4 and seen with some other pieces from this old collection in photo 5. A beautiful little artsy piece that would fit on a shelf or by a bedside and also look equally great in a wooden or glass bowl with other sea things. I have a shell this size on my bedside table for a nice "take me away to the beach" moment when I wake up!
This little feminine frilly beauty measures approximately 3 3/4" by 3 1/4" by 2 1/2". I love that something that looks so pretty and fragile comes out of the vast & powerful sea! It is actually very hardy feeling in your hand and isn't that fragile.
Gorgeous for a cabinet of curiosities type display & beachy décor. Even if you aren't going for beach décor, seashells are timeless and makes great additions for any décor. God really is the best artist!
Convo before checking out if you want insurance, which would be $1.95 additional.
I can get quite a few shells/corals in flat rate boxes so convo for combined shipping rate if you are interested in several pieces. I offer such a wide range of items in SeaSeaRider that I can not automatically put the discounts on my shipping charts. I do my best to combine shipping and save you moolah if items can be shipped together. If you don't want to wait and want to go ahead and check out, I will refund thru Paypal if I am able to ship items together safely for a savings. I do this all the time!
Visit my shop SeaSeaRider for a plethora of sea things, from old shells to bookplates for framing to sea vignettes plus letterpress, botanical and bird bookplates, my original sea themed art & sea jewels, books, ephemera, glass, and a boat load of vintage Christmas & Valentines, etc. Much to inspire you to decorate, create, or find a gift for the sea/beach or vintage lover in your life!
May you always have the beach to yourself. (:
