✪ Description: The octopuses on this piece are handcrafted from polymer clay and painted to resemble the species Larger Pacific Striped Octopus. One octopus is cosily tucked inside the vintage tea cup, the other sits on top. Together they're building a little den. Larger Pacific Striped Octopus are the only octopus species we currently know of that have a partner, which they share dens and food with.
Outside and around this little den we find many, many hand beaded corals and reef growths. They are made from a mixture of materials; primarily Miyuki rocailles and a small amount of 24k Gold plated Miyuki Delica's, mixed in with different other brands (e.g. Preciosa Ornela) depending on the colors and properties I was looking for. The whole is complemented with several shapes, colors and styles of paillettes (sequins). All beads and paillettes are hand strung on silver wire.
