My UK coastal correspondent (Mum) is now searching shores in Blighty to bring you exciting new products & ideas exclusive to Oceania Island Living.
The latest discovery was found in an upmarket country town at a very exclusive shop, Wesley-Barrell. Known more for its fine quality traditional furniture, Mum spied a rather curious object amongst scrolled armed sofas and Chippendale styled tables - encapsulated in a solid glass dome was a little creature from the deep...
This beautiful jellyfish paperweight would stop anybody in their tracks, not just the juxtaposition of its displayed environment in Wesley-Barrell.
Jellyfish are surreal creatures, alien-like yet beautifully ethereal they look so other worldly that to encapsulate them in glass transforms them into an old fashioned Victorian curio, a fine specimen in a watery glass jar to be studied and admired in pure fascination that there truly could be a creature such as this in the world.
The jellyfish paperweight comes in many more colours, I've shown a dark one here so that you can get a better look at it.
Needless to say my Mum just had to buy one of these for its unique and beautiful qualities. It sits on her desk and I'm sure its stands out of the crowd, I so want one!

Happy Island Styling.
That's the coolest thing I've seen in ages!
