Beautiful red abalone Sea shell - Haliotis rufescens

A striking natural abalone shell with vibrant orange coloration and elegant banding, creating a warm and eye-catching appearance. The exterior displays finely layered tones in shades of orange, cream, and soft red, making this a particularly attractive and rare variation. On the surface, two natural barnacles (balani) are still attached, adding authenticity and character to the specimen. Its natural perforations and sculpted form highlight the shell’s marine origin, while the smooth curves and layered textures further enhance its decorative appeal. This RARE specimen is not only a remarkable collector’s item but also a beautiful decorative piece that brings a touch of natural elegance to any interior. Displayed on a clear acrylic stand, it is ready to be admired as a unique work of nature’s artistry. Dimensions: 17.5 × 13.5 × 3.8 cm
