AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This expressive set brings together three very different marine forms into a harmonious ensemble that lives as much on contrasts as on their shared origin. Each shell brings its own character and, in a quiet way, tells of movement, depth, and time.

On the left, a richly structured spiny sea snail reveals itself, its striking projections and the light–dark contrasts creating a powerful, almost archaic impression. Its form appears lively and wild, like a frozen moment in the dynamics of the seabed.

In the middle lies a shimmering mother-of-pearl shell, whose surface softly reflects the light. The iridescent nuances lend it a calm, almost meditative radiance. It forms the gentle center of the set and provides balance between the two more striking shapes.

On the right, a yellow-tinged cone snail complements the ensemble with a clear line and warm coloration. Its smooth, tapering silhouette appears composed and focused, while fine natural speckles and textures provide depth and authenticity.

Together, a balanced set emerges that blends wildness and calm, structure and shine. The combination is suitable both as a decorative arrangement with maritime elegance and as a special collectible, captivating with its variety of shapes and natural presence.

The stands are not included.
