About the Item

Elegant marine decorative arrangement composed of a carefully selected selection of shells, conches, and coral fragments, arranged in an antique blown glass goblet with a crackled mercury finish. The flared, vertically fluted base provides a vintage aesthetic with worn metallic reflections that contrast with the organic softness of the natural elements. The shell collection exhibits a wide variety of shapes, textures, and colors: from striped and smooth mollusks to pearly snails and limestone corals, harmoniously arranged on the mouth of the vessel, evoking the decorative style of curiosity cabinets or Victorian-era coastal ornaments. Ideal as an accent piece on side tables, display cases, or vanities, this composition blends natural charm with a sophisticated stand, creating a visually appealing and unique object.
