I have this frosted crystal mermaid atop some blue colored glass rocks and my black-ebony apache tears pebbles, [that I showed & told before; the link will take you to that post if you missed it]. Also in the container are a few small shell pieces and what appears to be small sea rocks and/or sea fossils. She is sitting in a clear glass round, undecorated non-etched bowl surrounded by more small nautical items and pieces of blue glass, blue bottles, and blue decanters.
She has been in our family for decades. Purchased overseas and shipped to us as a gift. We've had her for pro'lly 35 years. She came from the "North Sea", Baltic Sea, during military days of a family member. It reminds me [since it came from that area of the world] of the replica of Andersen's Little Mermaid you'd see near Denmark. Tho the pose is somewhat different than the one near Copenhagen, it still makes me think of it.

The Little Mermaid statue is only a 10-minute walk
from the cruise ship pier in Copenhagen.
At less than five feet tall, the statue is
much smaller than most people expect, and she
sits on a rock near the shore, not in the middle
of the harbor. Hans Christian Andersen
wrote "The Little Mermaid" fairy tale in 1837,
and in 1909 the founder of
Carlsberg Breweries, who was fascinated
by the story, had the statue built.

A spiteful little siren sings her melody at sea.Enchanting the swabs on deck -
filling them with fantasies; ecstacy.
They turn from there assigned dutiful deeds,
shuffling o'er the water-drenched deck plunging
into her awaiting nakedness with nary a fear;
The maiden drags them below; into the dark abyss;
ferried by swift currents of the mere.
