Shell
Miller's (2,450 square feet)
948 J Clyde Morris Boulevard, Newport News, VA
This location opened in fall 2000, replacing an older 1960s-built Shell/Miller Mart #66 that sat on the same site (known as "Bayberry Shell").
Romantic white mosaic box, created round a collection of sea shells from the beaches of Fiji. I used beads, marbles, irridescent tiles, teacups, pebbles, glass nuggets and one rather nice lilac glass jewel to complement the lovely shells.
Grouted in white. the box measures 35 x 10 x 6 cm and is lined with white embroydered cotton.
