She began by handpicking seashells from the Maine shoreline, and soon after created a patented process that allowed her to use them for beautiful tableware. Today ShellStone is an eco-friendly, contemporary brand that represents the spirit found in the heart of Maine as its work uses reclaimed Lobster, Mussel, and Clam Shells from Maine.
