The Sea Star Pin showcases the five-armed echinoderm that walks on hundreds of tiny tube feet — the marine invertebrate that can regenerate lost arms, digest prey outside its body, and exhibits radial symmetry that defies bilateral norms. Sea stars represent regeneration and adaptation; they're neither fish nor stars but something uniquely their own, proving successful design comes in many forms.
Perfect for tide pool explorers, marine biologists, beachcombers, or anyone who's watched their slow hydraulic movement across rocks. This speaks to those who know that sea stars can regenerate from a single arm if it retains part of the central disk. Makes a beautiful gift for the coastal enthusiast who appreciates invertebrate diversity.
Choose from multiple finishes to celebrate marine life. Built with materials sourced from long-established U.S. suppliers and finished by hand in Washington State. It's wearable art honoring the ocean's regenerators.
