Shell Trinket Box

These charming handmade boxes are intricately decorated with ribbons and a variety of shells, painted in soft matte colors to complement the shellwork.

Tess Morley’s intricate shell-embellished designs are exquisite examples of nature’s boundless beauty. She began creating shellwork sailor’s valentines as a child on England’s coast and is now an internationally renowned artist. Morley creates shellwork masterpieces including the obelisks, decorative panels, and objets d’art commissioned by R. Runberg. She also has dedicated much of her career to preserving historic shellwork grottos and follies on National Trust properties throughout Great Britain.
