A CROWN OF BARNACLES ATOP ANTIQUE SEA BOTTLE
A CROWN OF BARNACLES ATOP ANTIQUE SEA BOTTLE
A beautifully weathered, worn and partially calcified bloom of barnacles is imbued with sea salt white against variegated hues of mauve and soft lavender. Highly textured and beautifully unique, this seaside sculpture displays coarse sand that is forever held within the walls of the bottle. Held fast by organically sculpted metalwork, the bloom crowns a pale sun purple bottle of antique glass washed up from the Pacific ocean. Veiled in an ethereal patina that swirls over the heavy, hand blown glass — this piece is perfect alone and would bode well as part of any of our beloved collections.
