Description: | This model of the sea anemone Cataphellia brodricii was made by the Blaschkas, a family of highly skilled glassworkers. Several lots of models were bought for the Newcastle Museum between 1865 and 1870. Cataphellia brodricii lives in the lower shore, often attached to rocks under a thin layer of sand. In England, it is found only off Devon and Cornwall. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East animals art glass natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
