Vintage Dried Finger Sponge

Sale price$74.00

An organically sculptural finger sponge with soft branching arms in a warm, natural brown-tan hue. This dried specimen dates to the mid-20th century and comes from a large, curated shell collection. Its porous form and subtle movement make it an ideal accent for natural history displays or understated coastal styling. Finger sponges are soft-bodied marine animals (phylum Porifera) that filter water through their porous structure, and this one retains its sculptural, tree-like form with quiet elegance.

Measures approx. 10” H x 11” W

Styling Ideas:

Display on a shelf or in a shallow bowl as a sculptural natural element. Pair with trench art, primitive vessels, or mineral specimens for a curated look. Works beautifully in wabi-sabi, coastal, and naturalist interiors.
