Victorian shellwork dome, a stunning example of maritime folk art. Housed under its original glass dome, this delicate display showcases an intricate arrangement of natural seashells—handcrafted into floral and geometric patterns that reflect the Victorian era’s fascination with the sea and natural curiosities.
Each shell is meticulously placed, forming a vibrant, textured bouquet preserved through time. These pieces were often made by sailors or coastal artisans as keepsakes or romantic gifts, making them not only beautiful but rich with history and sentiment.
Good condition, minor losses to the shellwork, small crack to the back of dome.
