Sizing & Colouration:
All of the photos in this listing depict the size of our Standard scallop shells, which measure approximately 10-11 cm at their widest.
However I do also have available some extra large scallop shells of width 12-14cm if a larger size is preferred. Just simply select your choice on the drop down of options. To help, a photo showing the size comparison between a typical standard shell and an XL shell can be seen in the last photo.
Internal and external colourations do vary from shell to shell. Colourations can be white, cream, yellowy, pink, through to deep red or brown. If you have a particular preference or would like to see a selection of current pieces to choose from please let me know xx
Directions for care:
Seashells are naturally delicate so please handle your trinket dish with care. Our trinket dishes are not designed to be submerged in water. However, should you need to, the sealer used as a finish on these shells does allow them to be gently rinsed under running water and left to air dry.
A note on creation:
Each shell trinket dish is individually hand crafted and is a one of a kind creation, not manufactured in a factory. As a result, each shell trinket dish will have subtle variations from one item to the next, which is caused by natural variations in the shape, colouration and size of the sea shells used, as well as a result of the hand gilding method.
Given the unique nature of the items being sold, the description, photos and measurements listed have been used to portray, in general, the items for sale. However, if more specific information is required on individual pieces for sale or you have any questions, please do get in touch.
All shells used in our listed items are natural and have been sourced locally from within the UK, many from within the Home Counties. Our spiny cockle shells have been collected from Kent beaches and our Oyster shells from Suffolk and Essex.
