(Code: A-029)

Panel with seashells on a double net in an octagonal brown wooden frame. Seashells collected on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, Algarve, Portugal. We used pieces of cork oak bark as a shell base for this composition. A great gift for yourself and your loved ones.

Walking along the Atlantic coast, on the beaches we collect a large number of all kinds of shells. Shells are amazing creatures. They can have different shapes, colors and even patterns - it depends on the glands that the molluscs have. The surface of the sinks can also be different - rough, smooth, twisted, with stripes, in the form of a fan ... The shell is the external skeleton of mollusks, their strength, which they themselves build throughout life. The mollusk grows, and its outer protection is the shell. Layer by layer, the sea dwellers fold the edges its mantle, forming limestone crystals from the salts of sea water. In winter, shellfish grow more slowly than in summer, because of this, seams and convex growth rings are formed on the shell. Along them, like on annual rings on a tree cut, you can calculate the age of the mollusk.
