Harbour seals, also known as common seals, are the smaller of the UK's two seal species, though their name can be misleading - they're not as common as you might think. In fact, current estimates give their numbers at 55,000 - a third of the number of grey seals around Britain's shores.
These charming creatures spend much of their time lounging on beaches, rocks, and sandbanks, but they're also strong swimmers, often seen gliding through coastal waters. Each harbour seal has a unique pattern of spots on its coat, making it possible to tell individuals apart.
In British folklore, they were believed to be selkies - mythical creatures that could transform into humans. Today, their curious and playful nature makes them a much-loved symbol of coastal wildlife.
This pair of harbour seals, both looking directly at the camera, seem perfectly content among the seaweed on the shoreline. Their soft, curious gazes give them a charming, approachable look, as if they're inviting you into their peaceful coastal world. Whether they've just finished a swim or are simply taking in the surroundings, these seals remind us to enjoy the calm moments and stay curious about the world around us.
Bring this delightful duo into your home with wall art, or brighten someone's day with a greeting card or coffee mug featuring these adorable, inquisitive seals!

Fantastic artwork, great service, from ordering to delivery

Thank you so very much the mugs are really lovely and you have kept me informed how my order was doing right up to the delivery, your service is 1st class and I will be doing business with you again.
Absolutely wonderful photo! I bought it for my grandson but my daughter loved it so much that we decided it would be a waste to put it on his bedroom wall. The quality and detail demands a place where everyone can see it. I would definitely recommend this to family and friends. Thank you for the quick delivery too!
Brilliant! My print is beautiful. I initially ordered the wrong product due to my own error but Carol was so supportive and helpful I cannot recommend her/this company enough.
Today I had the pleasure of picking up a framed and mounted print of 'Dandelion Clock' its absolutely stunning. The clarity is just crazy!! Now to decide where to put it!! Really beautiful work.
