Hand Painted Cape Cod Scallop Shell Ornament | Coastal Art

Bring a little piece of Cape Cod’s natural beauty home with this hand-painted floral scallop shell ornament by local Cape Cod artist Jodi French.

Featuring a warm golden-yellow flower surrounded by earthy green leaves and soft neutral details, this one-of-a-kind piece transforms an authentic Cape Cod scallop shell into a beautiful piece of floral coastal art. Each shell is individually painted by hand, allowing the shell’s natural shape and texture to become part of the finished design.

From the Cape Cod Coast to Your Home

The story of each piece begins right here on Cape Cod. These authentic scallop shells are brought ashore by local Cape Cod boats and harvested by Nick Nickerson. In his North Chatham barn, Nick carefully hones each shell and drills it by hand for hanging before it becomes a canvas for Jodi’s artwork.

Jodi then individually hand-paints each natural shell, combining Cape Cod’s maritime heritage with artwork inspired by the natural beauty of the coast.

Perfect for hanging on a wall, incorporating into a gallery wall, displaying in a coastal or cottage-inspired home, using as a Christmas ornament, or giving as a meaningful Cape Cod gift or keepsake.
