These one-of-a-kind cards feature real, hand-pressed seaweed arranged to showcase the delicate forms and natural beauty of marine algae. Each card is both a meaningful note and a unique work of art - send one to someone special in your life, or frame it and put it on display. Made by Jordan Chalfant, ecologist at the Maine Natural History Observatory and seaweed artist based in Bar Harbor, Maine. Details Size: 5" x 7" Materials: Wild-harvested seaweed, heavy-weight cardstock, sealed for preservation Blank inside, includes an envelope Each card is made from real seaweed collected along the Maine coast and hand-pressed using traditional techniques. A thin layer of sealant helps protect the delicate structure while preserving its natural color and intricate detail. Because this is an organic material, subtle fading over time is normal. We recommend keeping your card out of direct sunlight to maintain its vibrancy, especially if you choose to frame it.
