Frequently Asked Questions

Are the oyster shells used sustainably sourced?

Absolutely! At Oyster Mama, sustainability is extremely important to us. All of the oyster shells used in our decorative pieces are up-cycled from shells that would otherwise go to waste from oyster harvests. By giving these shells new life as art, we're preventing them from ending up in landfills.
