Sea Fan Collection
Merzatta all started when one of us picked up a single piece of sea fan coral from a beach on Mustique in the Caribbean Grenadines. We could see that nature had created a beautiful piece of jewelry, and when we cast it, we were so dazzled that we began to create even bigger swaths of these delicate undersea fans – wide enough to dangle from the ear or wrap around a wrist, while still preserving both the delicate organic structure, and the curves and twists of the way this coral dances with the currents.
