Blue Illustrated Sea Turtle Scallop Shell Trinket Dish | Gilded Gold Leaf Coastal Decor | Handmade Jewellery Ring Dish | Nautical Home Gift

Bring a touch of the ocean into your home with this handmade scallop shell trinket dish featuring an original blue sea turtle illustration by Emma wade art, inspired by coastal life and marine beauty. Each piece begins as a real shell, carefully prepared in my Surrey studio and transformed into a small functional work of art.

The sea turtle artwork is taken from my original watercolour painting, then applied and finished as decoupage with hand-painted details before being sealed beneath a high-gloss crystal clear resin for durability and a beautiful glass-like shine. The shell edges and/or back can be finished in natural varnish, painted white, or gilded with liquid gold leaf, depending on your chosen option.

Perfect as a decorative shell dish for coastal home decor, this piece can be used as a jewellery dish, ring holder, trinket tray, bedside dish, cufflink holder, or a small tealight holder. It also makes a thoughtful gift for ocean lovers, birthdays, housewarmings, weddings, or coastal-inspired interiors.

Each shell is naturally unique in shape, size, and depth, making every dish truly one of a kind.

• Approx size: 12 cm wide
• Real scallop shell
• Original sea turtle artwork (from my watercolour)

Each shell dish will have subtle variations in its natural size and depth and how the decoupage is applied, as every one is individual.

The shells are wrapped in white tissue paper and are then presented in a natural, branded, sustainable gift box, nestled in white shredded & recycled paper to protect the shell on its journey.

A wonderful self indulgent treat for you or a thoughtful gift to show your love for that special someone ❤️

My shells are uniquely sealed with a hard wearing gloss epoxy resin which is water resistant but I as a precaution I do not recommend submerging the shells in water and they are not dishwasher safe. Please wipe with a soft cloth.
