Item Description
A small Edwardian circular shellwork diorama, featuring a chromolithograph of a sailing yacht. In front of the image is an artfully arranged display of shells and seaweed, creating a 3D effect to the view. In overall good condition.
These shellwork dioramas were produced in the late Victorian/early Edwardian period as souvenirs of coastal towns and seaside locations, often bought by sailors as presents for their sweethearts.
