Dear colleagues,
I was at Macys in NYC last weekend and just happened to observe the latest Coral Spray Bedding collection from Martha Stewart. Corals, sponges, shells, and JEN Vernons Corals of the World are featured as part of the display. The corals are replicas and not for sale. However, there is no disclaimer or notice to the un-sustainability of corals as ornaments, which may send the wrong message to the general public. Given the recent coral-list interest in the coral trade, I though I would share images of the display, see: http://s273.photobucket.com/albums/jj201/Steven_Lutz_Photos/Coral%20Trade%20NYC/
As this is the International Year of the Reef, wouldnt it be nice if retailers got the message and noted such (at least by the end of the year)?
Cheers,
Steven Lutz
P.S. more coral trade images are available in the parent folder Steven_Lutz_Photos
