A red and yellow gorgon on a brass base.
This gorgonian is the dazzling mixture of red and yellow. This Leptogorgia hebes comes from the Gulf of Mexico.
It grows sheltered from the sun's rays in areas between 10 and 300 meters deep. Where no one sees its vibrant colors. Their color is of course natural.
Attached perpendicular to their support, the colonized polyp branches filter the water with the current to capture the micro-organisms in suspension.
Gorgonians, like corals, are animals living in the form of sessile colonial polyps, organized in a tree structure. Each polyp has 8 tentacles which filter the plankton and consume it. The general structure, a skeleton both flexible and hard, called gorgonine do not grow towards the sun (it does not require light to develop) but perpendicular to the current, so as to filter a maximum of water flow.
A very beautiful decorative object.

Rattan, a material with extraordinary properties with limits.
Rattan is a vine of the Palm race, which grows in very humid or even swampy equatorial forests.
With its siliceous skin like glass, this extremely solid and light vine is particularly resistant to humidity, as are tropical woods, teak or others.
But this resistance has its limits. Exposed to rain, rattan resists very well for a whole day or even a few days. But if this rain continues for too many hours, the humidity will gradually penetrate the Rattan, and day after day the material kept damp will end up slowly degrading and losing its resistance qualities.
The physical limits of rattan imply precautions for use. On the terraces of Parisian cafes, the chairs can last for decades while they are often in the rain all day for long periods. But they are piled up every night under cover and can thus dry out.
More generally, rattan can withstand rain for long hours without compromising its longevity, but must be able to dry regularly.
In practice, rattan furniture can stay outside throughout the "summer season", the weather is hot and rather dry, continuous rains exceptionally last more than three or four days and Rattan withstands such rains without degrading.
But as soon as the season advances, the temperature drops, there is a lot of condensation and humidity, the Rattan will gradually become humid, the long and heavy rains accentuating this degradation. In practice, these are sensitive situations by the sea.
It is then imperative to put the seats under shelter, a ventilated shelter to avoid progressive humidification as soon as the "bad season" arrives, in practice from mid-October to mid-March for a continental climate.
The alternative if you want to use your Rattan furniture all year round, is to put it away daily, every evening, as Parisian terraces do.
In summary, 2 main principles to respect:
During the winter season (October 15 to March 15 in Europe) in all climates: the furniture must be stored “dry”. It can however be left outside during the day, but must imperatively be put in the dry during the night.
During the "beautiful season", the rest of the time, the Rattan can remain permanently outside.
However, if a lasting rain arrives, the Rattan should only be left in this rain for two or three days at the most, before putting the furniture in the dry place so that it can dry. He only takes it out once the rain has stopped (In any case, a terrace cannot be used in the rain).

Tridacna Derasa clam on a black wooden stand.
A magnificent unique piece, a rarity!
Very beautiful Tridacna Derasa holy water font presented on a custom-made wooden stand. Its two faces are remarkable.
A black wooden base supports and delicately presents this shell.
The famous giant clam, the world's largest species of bivalve shell that has always spawned legends of divers held underwater between its mighty shells.
Of course, it is a young Tridacna Derasa, but this subspecies generally does not exceed 60cm. Its growth at the start is about 5cm per year then it will increase to 3cm per year.
It is therefore not a very young clam.
Like most giant clams, this species is in danger because it is over-harvested, either for its flesh in Asia, or as decorative shellfish.
This one comes from a farm in Micronesia which hopes to succeed in regenerating the local population.
Width (cm): 22.00
Height (cm): 31.00
Depth (cm): 24.00
Unique piece.
Bouquet of natural shells composed of large purple barnacles: Megabalanus tinnabulum, and those strange oysters with such a twisted mouth: the Lopha Cristagalli.
Both species live in the same Indo-Pacific region and found the "cockscomb" oysters with a few barnacles on a shipwreck off Surabaya in Java.
They have been grouped to give a round shape instead of the flat side they have, attached to the boat.
A cultural and natural piece at the same time.
A magnificent unique piece!
