With beautiful shells, you bring the Ibiza vibes home, creating a sense of tranquility and giving your interior a unique touch.
Here are some tips and ideas to bring the sea into your home with the stunning shells we have in stock!
Shell as a bowl
Shells can be used in the interior as a small bowl to store jewelry, for example. The polished Bivalvia shell is a popular choice for this purpose. With a mother-of-pearl shine, they give your jewelry an extra luxurious look, making it feel like a celebration every morning when you pick up your jewelry.
A popular shell is the Haliotis shell. This shell has a special function. It can be used to burn incense or loose white sage. Native Americans used this shell to cleanse the house and other spaces, also known as smudging. To highlight the beautiful colors even more, this shell can also be placed on a pedestal.
Shells in a dome or frame
What many people don't realize is that, besides taxidermy butterflies and insects, shells can also be placed in a frame or dome. Let your creativity run wild by arranging the shells in original shapes. You can play with dynamics by placing different sizes of shells together in a dome. From large to small or crisscrossed. Or put a single special shell in the spotlight.
The ancient nautilus shell, with its striking snail-like appearance, is very suitable for display. When split, you can even see the secret of the nautilus fossil. You will see a spiral, an example of the Fibonacci sequence. In nature, there are many examples of this spiral, such as in the sunflower!
There are so many stories to tell about shells, and they shine in your interior. If the choice stress from all these examples becomes too much, the shells can, of course, always be placed loose in the room, and you can ask us for advice!
