Shell Covered Octopus

This is a 12" wood octopus covered in shells and sand from NJ beaches. The back and sides are painted white. Jute is attached to the back with staples to create the hook to hang from. Shells are hand collected from NJ beaches. Shell size, shape, color, and style will differ from the photo. The photo(s) used are to show you the shape you will receive. Shells come from nature and due to that fact, every piece is one of a kind and cannot be duplicated. The piece is sealed with a clear sealant that keeps the little pieces of shells and sand from falling off. DO NOT hang outside or in direct sunlight. Moisture and/or heat will cause the sealant to soften and shells may come loose. If you would like to hang outside, I can coat the piece with an outdoor sealant for an extra charge. Even if the piece is covered with the outdoor sealant, there is no guarantee that the weather will not cause the piece damage. If you want the outdoor sealant applied, please message me before purchase so that I can adjust the price. Thank you for your interest in Shoreganic.
