The Shell Lamp - "Marcelle and her little shell"

This habit goes back to childhood, filling my pockets with shells gathered on the beach, unable to choose, because they are all beautiful.

These lamps were born from that: from this need to pay homage to these wonders that the sea deposits on our path. They are altars of light that evoke the sound of waves, the smell of salt, vacation romances, the smell of chichis...

🐚 Marcelle and her little shell

This lamp, it's a story of love and transmission.

It was inspired by Marcel the shell with his shoes and Jean-Louis Aubert's song "Marcelle", which I often listen to on repeat.

It's a patient shell, one of those that have seen several tides pass without ever losing their softness.
It keeps close to it its little shell, nestled like a child after a long day at the beach. It protects it from everything: from strong winds, from too curious waves, and even from large hands rummaging through the sand without looking.

Marcelle, she comes from summers where everything smelled of salt and sunscreen, where you brought back the day's treasures in a yellow bucket, neatly aligned on the camping table to admire them.
She remembers afternoons spent looking for "the most beautiful shell for mom", sandy knees and a snack that was a little too sweet.

Today, she is looking for a home where little things are loved, where memories are kept warm, where no one laughs at a shell that wants to stay close to its baby. She would like to be placed in a bright corner, not too high, so that people can look at her often.

In return, she promises to remind every day that you can be strong and tender at the same time.
