Admittedly I did place this shot! The shells were on the ground but not in this possition (*quite). I like this photo though, one of my personal favourites.

Another period or theme for Ruth before the nude became so prominent in her work was shells: She was swept away for awhile by shells. It started in New York. One winter in the early 40's her designer father, Lucian Bernhard, told her she looked pale and gave her the money to travel to a seashell show in Florida on Sanibel Island near Ft. Meyers. Ruth must have said, "OK, whatever you say, Papa". She took the prints she had to Florida and after meeting a couple key people was offered a spot in the show. She loved the whole atmosphere and a lady stopped by and bought everything she had for $25 a print (which was big money, then). It was the widow of Thomas Edison, who had an estate called the Seminole Lodge in that area. As a warning here, Ruth wrote to me on the back of this print, "A bad print!". What was she talking about? Probably the hot spot in the middle. She believed the print finalized the idea and thought this one failed to do that.
Several Decades ago, the Shell Oil Company, put out a number of card series. They also sold albums to put these cards in. Everytime you went to Shell for petrol, or anything else, they gave you some cards. The idea was to collect the whole lot, and generally they were most obliging in allowing you to go through the box, to get the cards you were missing.
I only have the Transport Card series left, the others have been long thrown out.
I have scanned each page. This is the final part, part 2.
The Shell Collection, which is specially designed for FueraDentro by the dutch designer Jan des Bouvrie, consists of two chairs, a bank sofa, four tables and a sunbed. The fibers of the chairs, sofa and sunbed are made of Batyline and the frames are made of stainless steel. This combination of materials makes the SHELL collection ideal for outdoor use.
The most notable characteristics of the SHELL collection is the rounded shape of the shelllike bucket seat, which brings a stunning sense of shelter. The seatings are carried out in a coaxial structured Batyline® fibre. The frames are made of electro-polished stainless steel and the tabletops are glass.

This is an angled view of my 20 gallon long tank for multies from Lake Tanganyika. There is a thin layer of sand on the bottom with shells and rocks and a few live plants. It is currently occupied by half a dozen multies which are the smallest known cichlids and they live/hide/breed in empty shells

My first products in 3D printed ceramics were the Ceramic Coasters and this time I wanted to create more of classical and beautiful product with a simple purpose.
Inspired by the curves, flowing surfaces and gentle ridges found on sea shells, I created a shape that is a continous surface which is curls around and inside itself to create an object that naturally holds a candle.
The candle holder is made to fit the IKEA Jubla crown candles and most other crown candles.

Discovered in 1835, Margate's Shell Grotto is an astonishing find; 21 metres of winding passages decorated with 4.6 million shells. The walls are covered in images of gods and goddesses, trees of life and patterns of whelks, mussels and oysters. Some think it is an ancient Pagan grotto, others that it is simply an ornate Regency folly; but with no definitive explanation or history, the Shell Grotto is Kent's greatest mystery.
