Starfish toys come in many poses. This one coils into a curled shape, with segments that bend so you can shift its arms into new positions any time you like.
Each arm is made of small linked pieces that flex together, giving the whole shape a wavy, lifelike curve. You can set it on a shelf as a quiet ocean-themed accent, or keep it on your desk to twist and pose when your hands need something to do.
It is printed in PLA and made to order in the USA after you place your order. Its coiled form makes it a small conversation piece for any room, and a simple, playful object for anyone who likes sea creatures or hands-on desk toys.

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
