S ABOUT OTHER ANIMALS Are the red and blue starfish really so made, or they are painted?
-Both. When they are living, the natural colour of each specimen in our catalogue is a fine bright red or a dark blue, but all the starfish, on their death, lose their pigments becoming of pale colour. According to the process of desiccation, they can or not retain their original colour. Those blue, indeed, are natural, while those red have been “recharged”, that is they got again artificially their colours when alive.
