Know before you buy
No. Because each piece is molded from a unique, authentic oyster shell found on Rhode Island shores, there will be natural variations in shape and texture, making every ornament one-of-a-kind.
Being crafted from fine pewter, the ornament has a solid, substantial feel that hangs well on a sturdy tree branch. It is durable and designed to last for many holiday seasons.
The ornament typically includes a hanging loop, but it does not come with a hook. You will need to provide your own ornament hook or ribbon to display it on your tree.
Pewter is a low-maintenance metal. If it loses its luster over time, you can gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth to restore its natural shine. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners.
While the pewter material is durable, it is designed primarily for indoor use. Exposure to harsh outdoor elements may cause the finish to weather or tarnish more quickly.
