Price on enquiry Enquire

Every piece is handmade

The photos show the kind of work on offer. No two pieces are identical, so we send you photos of what is actually in stock before you decide.

Keep the bill for shell items

Shells leaving the islands are checked at Port Blair airport. A bill from a licensed seller is what clears them. No coral and no protected species, ever.

Pick up, hotel drop or shipping

Collect in Port Blair, have it dropped at your hotel in the islands, or ask us to ship it to you anywhere in India.
