Bethany — Mermaid of the Tides

Some sculptures feel seasonal. Bethany feels timeless.

Perched atop a swirling tower of ocean-blue waves, Bethany rises gracefully from a sea of movement, wonder, and hidden treasures. Every turn reveals a new detail: an inky blue octopus nestled among the currents, delicate stars dancing along the base, tiny hearts tucked within the flowing coils, and a golden starfish cradled gently in her hands.

Her flowing hair, glazed in rich plums and weathered reds, frames a serene expression that radiates kindness, strength, and quiet magic. A shimmering pendant reminiscent of abalone shell rests at her neck, adding another touch of ocean-inspired beauty.

The sculptural base is a celebration of the sea itself; layer upon layer of waves, currents, and marine life woven together into a piece that invites closer inspection each time you pass by. Whether displayed on a mantel, bookshelf, entry table, or art cabinet, Bethany becomes a natural focal point and conversation piece.

While she would make a beautiful addition to holiday décor, Bethany was never meant to be packed away in a storage box. She is a year-round reminder of wonder, imagination, and the enduring pull of the sea.

For the collector who loves mermaids, coastal art, fantasy, or one-of-a-kind ceramic sculpture, Bethany is ready to find her forever home.

This listing is for the original ceramic sculpture "Bethany" only. Any additional items shown are for display purposes and may be available separately.

One of a kind. Handcrafted. Meant to be treasured.
