These unusual products are created from natural recycled shells and Maine granite gathered from the sea and from local quarries. Each piece is a one of a kind item that is meticulously created and shaped by hand.

The handles are made from crushed mussel, lobster and clam shells collected along local Maine beaches or obtained from local canneries.
