When faced with a nursery project for his best friend's newborn son, Staten Island sculptor Joseph Reginella created a shark baby basket inspired by the popular film Jaws. While not the most traditional of gift choices, the project is incredibly clever and has gained social media attention via the artist's Facebook page.
Built to resemble a boat that is being devoured by an open-mouthed ocean predator, Joseph Reginella's creation takes a nautical nursery theme to new heights. The shark baby basket looks extra photo-worthy when his friend Mark Melaccio's baby is sleeping inside of it.
This cinematic baby furniture project will only garner more attention and is sure to become a memorable keepsake for the newborn and his family when the child grows older.
