Summers in the sun! Sand castles and sand dunes. Sea gulls and sea breezes. Memories of clam bakes and oyster roasts and all the wonderful bounty of the sea. Use this box for storing little treasures or just enjoy them on your table top or dresser. Made of pewter with a pink-gold patina finish. Sea urchins are members of the phylum Echinodermata, which also includes starfish, sea cucumbers, brittle stars, and crinoids. Like other echinoderms they have five-fold symmetry (called pentamerism) and move by means of hundreds of tiny, transparent, adhesive "tube feet". The pentamerous symmetry is not obvious at a casual glance but is easily seen in the dried shell of the urchin. Made in the USA. Michael Michaud Artist Michael Michaud was born in Cleveland, Ohio and raised in Westport, Connecticut. He now resides in Fairfield, Connecticut with his wife Tricia. Starting as an apprentice mold cutter in 1973, Michael soon became a master precious metal caster and moldmaker. In 1976, seeking even more knowledge, Michael moved on to the Rochester Institute of Technology’s prestigious School for American Craftsmen. While studying under esteemed designers Hans Christenson and Gary Griffin, he mastered many of the techniques he uses today to capture the beauty and exquisite detail of nature in metal. Combining his love of nature and exceptional knowledge of precious metal casting and model making, Michael has created wonderful tabletop and giftware items. His exquisite use of layering colors of gold, silver and copper on bronze and pewter, give the Table Art collection an elegant and unique look all its own. “Nature’s creations are the ultimate Art that fills our hearts with joy, warms our souls with promise and fuels our spirits with desire. My true inspiration to reflect this beauty is what my Art is all about.”
