Description

Deep beneath the turquoise water off the coast of Corsica, a seahorse wraps its tail around a frond of seagrass and sways with the current. Divers who see one say it feels like a secret: the fish so small, so improbable, and so perfectly calm while the whole ocean moves around it. One young snorkeller swam back to the boat insisting she had seen a dragon, and nobody could quite prove her wrong.

Shaped as a seahorse and painted in blue, orange and green, this piece brings that rare underwater magic ashore. It closes with a decorative clasp, a pretty detail that adds to its charm. Give it to a diver, a marine biologist, a child who loves aquariums, or a friend whose beach cottage is filled with shells and driftwood. It looks wonderful on a bathroom shelf beside sea sponges, in a coastal living room among blue glass, or on a desk as a reminder of holidays by the water. Collectors of sea creatures will find its colours especially vivid.
