Large Turquoise Seahorse Plaque with Small Blue Seahorse and Starfish

(Due to the handmade nature of the work there may be a slight variation in size, pattern and colour and item displayed is not shown actual size, but be reassured that we only send out the finest examples.  Listing is for one seahorse with P&P discount given on multiple sales.)

Description:   This decorative turquoise seahorse wall plaque will brighten up any space. The adult seahorse has little raised cones and indentations on the body, that form a grid pattern, on to which a range of glaze and stains are applied to form a mottled pattern. The design is frost proof and waterproof and can be used both indoors and out. The piece can be tied securely on to a wall using strong string or wire, which is threaded through the holes on the blocks on the reverse of the piece. For extra security clear sealant can also be applied around the edges of the tile to hold the piece firmly in place.

The seahorse is available in either a turquoise mixture or a dark midnight blue range and co-ordinates well with our little baby seahorse and starfish designs. Please visit our other listings for colours and sizes. Postage discount is given on all multiple orders.

Artist's Statement:   I love seahorse facts and here are a few of my favourite ones. Despite their appearance seahorses are actually fish, although they are not very good swimmers, but they are excellent movers and can even swim backwards and upside down. Seahorses don’t have a stomach, which means they need to eat all the time. Many seahorses mate for life and spend most of their time together promenading along the bottom of the ocean with their tails entwined. The male of the species is the only one of its kind to become pregnant and give birth to lots of tiny babies that resembles the adults.
