Mango the Oriole is a beautiful and colorful bird, expertly crafted from an array of natural ocean materials, including channel whelk shells, vibrant orange and yellow pecten scallop shells, glossy black mussel shells, sturdy quahog shells, delicate white ark clam shells, moon eye shells, and slender auger shells. He’s a small but striking fellow, and even when standing proudly on his perch, he measures just 4.75” tall, 3” wide, and with his impressive tail fully extended, 5.25” long. This handcrafted sculpture captures the vibrant essence of the oriole in a uniquely coastal way.
