AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A naturally heart-shaped shell, transformed into a refined and symbolic decorative element. This specimen belongs to the species Maoricardium pseudolima (Lamarck, 1819), a bivalve in the Cardiidae family, widespread in the tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific. Its bilobed shape, with regular ribs and delicate shading between cream and pale pink, makes it immediately recognizable and highly appreciated by collectors and lovers of organic design.
The shell, authentic and selected for integrity and symmetry, has been mounted on a handmade dark wood base with a satin brass support. The overall effect is that of a suspended natural sculpture, capable of enriching nature-inspired environments, contemplative spaces, or modern cabinets of curiosities.
An object that merges marine biology and aesthetics: ideal as a decorative piece, an original gift, or a symbol of love for the sea and its hidden harmony.
