Chinoiserie Nutcracker Decoupage Oyster Ornament — Notched Shell

The blue-and-white nutcracker again, this time on a shell with a natural notch along one edge — the kind of irregularity that makes each oyster its own thing. Gilded rim, navy velvet bow, all done by hand by Melissa Fouts.

Tuck it into a wrapped gift as a topper, or start a little collection of them on a small tabletop tree.

Handmade in Louisiana. Because the shell is natural, size, shape, and coloring vary. One of a kind.
