Ariel, Flounder & Sebastian Oval

This beautiful Artland and ACME collaboration pin features a classic scene from Disney's 1989 animated masterpiece, The Little Mermaid. The pin depicts Ariel, the iconic mermaid princess, perched gracefully on a rocky outcropping while her faithful companions, Sebastian the crab and Flounder the tropical fish, keep her company. The design is framed in an elegant, gold-toned oval border topped with a detailed seashell crest, capturing the film’s magical undersea aesthetic. This specific piece is marked as an Artist Proof, which is a very limited version of the pin typically reserved for the artists or designers involved in the production process, making it highly sought after by serious collectors. The artwork features a vibrant color palette and crisp character lines that stay true to the original film's animation style. Because this release comes from the Artland and ACME partnership, it is known for high-quality metalwork and intricate detailing that separates it from standard Disney park releases. Ariel remains one of the most popular characters among Disney Princess collectors, ensuring that any high-quality pin featuring her and her core group of friends maintains strong interest in the trading community. The inclusion of the Artist Proof marking adds a layer of exclusivity that elevates its status above the standard production run. It serves as a sophisticated tribute to the film that kicked off the Disney Renaissance era of animation.
