These are handcrafted oyster table number holders that are multifunctional serving as table number holders, instant picture holders or place card holders. ABOUT THE SHELLS: The shells range in size from 2-7 inches in length and 1 -3 inches wide. Each shell is hand painted with gold leaf and sealed with a protective coat. I use recycled wine corks as the base to keep them upright. I have found that the wine corks create a sturdy and secure hold as well as an aesthetically pleasing 360 view. I test each shell before I ship them out to make sure a place card or table number (thick cardstock) can hold and secure them properly. ***Please note that each wine cork is unique to your shell. Some have red wine stains and logos on them. INFO ABOUT THE CARDS USED IN THIS LISTING: **The table number used in this photo is a 5x7 and the name tags are 2.5 x 3.5. ** Please note that if you are printing on your own, you'll want to make sure your design will not be covered up by the shell. Please take a look at the images in this listing to see how high the shells sit on the cards. INFO ON OYSTERS: All of these are real natural oysters. Each oyster will vary in color and size. Some oysters will be solid white, have purple spots that vary in color, holes, imperfections and discoloration. Some will have naturally growing pearls, lumps and bumps.
