A wonderfully whimsical vintage owl sculpture intricately covered in hundreds of natural seashells. Different varieties, sizes and tones of shells were carefully arranged to create the owl’s feathers, face, wings and perch, complete with glass eyes and loads of personality.
This is a substantial decorative piece with that wonderfully quirky old coastal character that simply cannot be reproduced by something new. A few missing shells were carefully replaced while preserving the original appearance and age of the piece.
Shown in the final photo with two smaller vintage shell owls, which will be listed separately.
Because apparently we now have a Hoot Collection.
Please zoom in on all photos and reach out with any questions happy to help.
