Plated Oysters Glass Ornament by Cody Foster

An oyster ornament, plated on the half shell in glass, brings the raw bar to the tree without any of the ice. The shell shapes behave like a neutral on the branch, so it settles in next to almost anything already hanging. Put it on a coastal tree, hook it into a garland along a sideboard, wire it to a wreath on a beach house door, or tie it to a bottle of muscadet for the host.

Perfect for: oyster people, coastal trees, summer house Christmases, hostess gifts, ornament exchanges, and anyone who orders the dozen.

Seafood and food ornaments hang from a branch on an ordinary hook, and shoppers usually collect them a piece at a time until one section of the tree tells a story. This one also displays well off the tree, propped on a small stand on a shelf or gathered in a bowl with other shell-toned pieces.
