View Full Version : Selling Resin cast shell top

Since I no longer use it, I thought about selling this beautiful top. It was an expensive top and I've put a lot of work in it. (I've decorated the shells and hand stitched all the 'pearls' on the bra)
It's a EU size 75B (which is a 34B american size I believe). I'm not sure if it's safe to use underwater. I added a lot of clear coats on the shells, but never used it in the water. I've only worn it 5 times.
Would like to get $285 ex shipping for it. (will ship worldwide)

It's a beautiful top! Resin is waterproof typically, do you have a link to what kind you used?

I bought the shells, they where custom painted for me. I added it to a new bra (bra wasn't included) and added all the decorations on the shells and bra itself. I have no idea what kind of resin was used.

I have not listed it, as I did not make the original shells. But you may send me a pm here or I could make a custom listing on Etsy for you.

Mermaid Avira: I had a lot of problems with the tail, and these are the pictures just before it fell apart =( These were taken just after a complete repaint and it indeed was very pretty then. ^^

@Meronica: The top is worth way more, but I want to use the money for my freedive lessons and gear, so I hope to find someone who will appreciate this pretty top ^^

Thank you Maressa! I still love it too, although it's very, very fragile and I'm thinking of perhaps selling it too..

Do what us drag and burlesque performers do and sew the base to a mesh fabric :) re-inforces fragile jewelry.

The base itself is quite sturdy. The 'strands' are the most fragile. But if used only for photoshoots etc it's still perfect for that. =)

Nobody? This pretty top is still for sale. Perhaps 240$ ex shipping is a more friendly price?

It's gorgeous! I would love to buy it, but sadly it's too small for my girls :(
BTW, the golden ankh you are wearing is lovely (I have a thing for ankhs).

Thanks Talia! (It's silver actually ;) ) I have this necklace, like forever. I don't even remember when or how I got it.
