About this artwork
Bold, playful, and powerfully organic, this vibrant sculpture reinterprets the legendary coco de mer seed — also known as the "love nut" — in a kaleidoscope of color.
Handcrafted with care by a French artist working from her studio in the rolling hills of the Lauragais countryside in southern France, this piece pays homage to nature’s sensuality while embracing artistic freedom.
The iconic double-lobed shape, reminiscent of both fruit and the human… body, evokes mystery, fertility, and exotic beauty.

Credentials
- Works on commission
Elisabeth Poinsignon, a self-taught sculptor, crafts unique pieces from Limoges clay with a focus on female nudes. She employs an artisanal approach, hand-sculpting each figure before firing them to vibrant life in a kiln. Among the solitude of her studio, Poinsignon creates works that convey a silent yet fervent examination of the female form, an emotive echo of her own quiet yet passionate practice.
