Anthropologie has a number of unique coastal theme items under Marine Decor and other categories (this octopus hook for example), but what I'm mostly smitten by are the products created by artist Nathalie Lete.
Nathalie Lete is a product designer and artist who lives in Paris, and she has been commissioned by Anthropologie to make unique pieces for their stores.
Bold art rugs like this octopus rug which was on display in Anthropologie's flagship store at the Rockefeller Plaza in New York City two years ago.
What's available online is this equally artsy and unique lobster rug. Update: Natalie of Forever The Hostess commented that this rug is actually made from a painting by New Orleans artist Shelley Hesse. It says so in the description, but I missed it!
Here Nathalie Lete's cool dinner plates (sweet octopus again)...
... and beautiful Life-At-Sea tumbles. Click here to see her entire line.
And I'm always interested to see where it all happens! So here it is, Nathalie Lete's studio in Paris.

I love the octopus hook!! The rugs are beautiful!
I <3 the rug :) and hook :)
I never realized how cute and cool octopus could be.
And I thought I was alone in my octopus obsession...
Actually, the lobster rug was commissioned by Anthropologie from a painting by Shelley Hesse. She is a New Orleans based artist, and her work is truly magical! Check her out here: http://www.shelleyhesse.com/gallery/

That first rug is wonderful. I wouldn't want anyone to walk on it.
Those rugs are absolutely amazing!!! I would LOVE to have that rug in my house!! I stopped in to Anthropologie not too long ago and didn't see anything marine-like! Maybe because I live in NY!
So interesting!
