AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Eburna Lienardii Bright orange shell.
This splendid Eburna lienardii comes from the seabed off Fortaleza, Brazil, at about 40 meters deep. Belonging to the Olivoidea family, this species was first described by Bernardi in 1859.
The shell has a well-proportioned ovoid shape, with a smooth, shiny surface.
The intense orange color is punctuated by pearly white bands that enhance the spiral with harmony and refinement. The wide opening and the delicate ivory color of the interior add further aesthetic value.
