Vintage Oyster Cultured Pearl Framed Specimen Shadow Box

Vintage Oyster Cultured Pearl Framed Specimen Shadow Box will add a touch of coastal charm and natural elegance to your home. This 1940's shadow box type frame features the life cycle of a pearl with four pearls and two oyster shells. Framed in a glass-fronted box frame with black paint, this unique specimen is both a natural history display and a work of art. This was made in Japan.

The oyster and pearl are delicately mounted on a neutral backing to highlight their textures and iridescence. In good vintage condition, there are a few tiny flecks of brown shell loose in the frame which should move to the bottom edge of the shell when hung on the wall. Perfect for collectors, beach house décor, or as a thoughtful gift for ocean lovers, this one-of-a-kind piece tells a quiet story of nature's beauty and mystery.
