Petite Powerhouses of Seaside Beauty

All of our Sea Life Collections are currently being restocked.
New pieces will be released throughout the entire week.

First up -- Our Diminutive Collection

Small in stature, but powerful in beauty. Pieces from our Diminutive Collection make a statement alone or as part of a group. We love a cluster of these little powerhouses of beauty on a coffee table, a vanity, in a mantle vignette, as part of a bookshelf display, on a bedside table, in a powder room- the possibilities are endless. Perpetual Summer, no matter what season.

Small in stature, a beautifully textured baby bear claw shell is held fast within the tendrils of rustic solder reminiscent of old, weathered iron. The shell crowns a petite English inkwell of thick hand blown glass from the 1800’s. The green, wavy glass forever holds tiny air bubbles and untold secrets of its past spend buried for over a century.

A rhapsody of texture and tone in a petite package -- highly textured and organically shaped farm raised baby coral fades from beautiful ecru to the creamy white of sea salt. Binding the diminutive coral to its beautiful pedestal is heavy, sculptured solder washed in the weathered and variegated hues of copper which was left to the elements for years on end. The solder neck has been embellished with whimsically applied solder pearls that have been sanded back to reveal yet another layer of color. Speaking of color... serving as a pedestal for the coral is a 19th century English inkwell of stunning hand blown green glass. Wavy and weighty, the glass forever holds a plethora of tiny air bubbles, mirroring the heavy texture of the coral.

A symphony of texture and unusual beauty - Ancient looking and hauntingly beautiful, a petite horned shell boasts an amazing display of soft hues and tactile splendor. Calcification of pale pinks, lavender and greys cover, but fail to completely hide the smooth and iridescent under layer of mother of pearl — both contrasting and complementing the pale aqua green of the Victorian inkwell serving as a pedestal. A relic of a bottle it is -- gorgeous hand blown glass well over a century old boasts character galore with the organic texture and tiny air bubbles trapped within. Heavy sculptural solder binds the shell to the small bottle while solder pearls dot the metalwork, adding an element of whimsy.

Petite Powerhouse of Pretty. A beautiful, highly textured urchin boasts mesmerizing textures, patterns and variegated shades of soft coral pink and sea salt white. Heavy, organically sculpted metalwork patinated with the hues of aged and weathered iron forever binds the petite shell to a small unearthed bottle of textured antique glass. Time and the elements have created a patina that changes with the light. A single pearl of solder embellishes the otherwise austere band of metalwork which frames the circumference of the shell.

Evoking childhood memories of shell collecting at dawn with the sea gently lapping at the sand while seabirds call out as they glide along the crests of waves; this petite shell bottle will bring summer to you any time of year. A beautifully weathered cone shell is imbued with sea salt white and sandy hues and bears spots of calcification along its textured surface. Held fast by organically sculpted solder, the shell crowns a small unearthed medicinal bottle of antique glass veiled in an ethereal patina mixed with a little rust and earth remnants. Subtle flashes of iridescent colors appear as the light happens across the surface of the bottle, reminiscent of mother of pearl. Perfect alone and would bode well as part of any of our collections.
