Tidal Pair – Shell & Lobster Framed Intaglios

This elegant framed composition pairs two timeless coastal symbols: a scallop shell and a lobster, rendered as hand-cast white intaglios in soft relief. Set one above the other, the motifs form a balanced vertical dialogue between delicacy and strength—an ode to life along the coast.

The intaglios are mounted on a subtly textured, cool-toned backing and framed within a layered, softly antiqued silver-and-gold frame. The generous mat and stepped frame profile give the piece depth and presence, while the restrained palette keeps it calm and versatile.

Rooted in the tradition of classical intaglios once collected as travel keepsakes, this piece reinterprets maritime iconography for a refined coastal interior—equally at home in a seaside residence, a summer house, or a thoughtfully curated gallery wall.
