Victorian Wedding Star Shell Picture
Traditionally brought on merchant ships to England from Barbados, these
intricate shell pictures have become highly prized by collectors. This
replica of a Victorian Shell Picture is based on a Wedding Star design, and
is a composition of entirely white shells. Queen Victoria commissioned some shell pictures as
portraits, including one of her favorite pug dog, "King Dick", whose shell
portrait still hangs in Buckingham Palace. This Wedding Star Shell Picture
is handsomely framed in solid mahogany. Makes an ideal wedding gift for a history
enthusiast or anyone who appreciates the natural world. Attractive
gift box included.
