Trio of Natural Pink Murex Sea Shells for Coastal Styling

Natural murex shells have some of the most sculptural forms the sea produces, all frilled ridges and curling spines, and this trio is a lovely set of them. Each one shows the soft palette murex are loved for, cream and sandy brown banding warmed with blushes of pink along the frills, and no two are ever quite alike, so your three will sit together beautifully while each keeping its own character.

Because these are natural shells and we have a number of them, the three you receive will not be the exact shells photographed here, but they will be the same type and a very similar size, hand picked to match what you see. Each shell measures approximately 10cm by 7cm.

A trio is a lovely amount to style with. Group all three along a table for a coastal tablescape, rest them on a stack of books or a windowsill, sit them beside a basin in a seaside bathroom, or use them as natural place markers for a summer lunch. Three is a naturally pleasing number to display, and if you are dressing a longer table you are very welcome to buy more than one set.

A trio also makes a sweet gift, a small set of natural objects that feels special without costing the earth, lovely for anyone who loves the sea.

Every shell carries its own marks and character, part of the charm of something the ocean shaped rather than a factory.
