Each custom Shell Face ceramic-wall- hanging is a one-of-a-kind artwork — hand-shaped and hand-carved of your little loved one’s face in a shell. There is an option to do a double-shell and have two carvings of faced in one (i.e. mother and child).

How it works

1. Send your photo: After purchasing, you’ll receive an email where you can send photographs. I find that images of the mother are nicest in profile for this but child can be either front facing or partly tuned. We will also discuss color options.

2. Creation process: I will design and paint a unique ceramic shell around 7 cm x 9 cm with a turnaround time of 3-5 weeks.

3. Completion: Your artwork will be carefully packaged and shipped once fired and ready to hang.

Each piece captures the essence of your chosen image in Natalie’s distinctive style, blending the tactile warmth of clay with painterly detail.
