The base is encrusted with a richly layered mosaic of real seashells in soft shades of purple,rose, coral, cream, and blush. The composition of scallops, cockles, and smaller shells creates a tactile, sculptural surface that feels both organic and artfully arranged. The variation in size and color gives it depth and rhythm, while the palette ties everything together in a refined, feminine way.

The custom cushion on top is the perfect complement—it features a fabric with coral reef illustrations in matching hues of dusty pink, mauve, golden ochre, and soft lavender. The print feels painterly and botanical, adding a dreamy, undersea botanical element that echoes the shellwork below. The rounded form of the footstool keeps the piece feeling soft and inviting, while the craftsmanship makes it feel bespoke and luxurious.

This piece would be stunning in a sunroom, coastal retreat, or even as an accent in a sophisticated powder room. See less
