Item #: crab-oyster Oyster Outdoor Pillow
"O Oysters," said the Carpenter,
"You've had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?
But answer came there none.
And this was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one.
(The Walrus and the Carpenter, by Lewis Carroll, 1872) A feast for the palate, a treat for the eyes. Lewis Carroll waxed poetic on the topic of oysters, and so could I. In the Pacific Northwest U.S. the wild Giant Pacific Oyster, a magnificent bivalve which can reach eight inches in length are growing all around. There are also smaller Native Pacific Oyster, about three inches in length, and equally delicious! These hand-painted all-weather oyster pillows are created one at a time right next to the salty waters wherein they grow, and grow, and grow! Measurements are approximately 20"x15", firmly stuffed with fiberfill and meant to be used and enjoyed outdoors or in. The commercial upholstery fabric withstands sun, rain, wind, and atmospheric nuclear particulates. These high-quality pillows are eminently suitable for your interior spaces as well. Spot clean, spray with a garden hose, or gently launder; air dry. Designed, painted, sewn, stuffed, signed and copyrighted on an island north of Seattle. Due to the handcrafting process, no two oysters are just alike (as in nature). Please keep them away from walruses and carpenters. Custom made upon order. Production time is about 4 weeks.
