Description from the seller
Comprehensive Mediterranean Marine Life Collection - Thematic Shell Selection - Gastropods & Bivalves (20 pieces)
A charming and diverse study collection of 20 genuine marine shells, primarily sourced from the Mediterranean basin. This assembly showcases a variety of shapes, textures, and biological structures.
The collection includes:
-Bivalves: A fine selection of Cardiidae (Cockles) and Veneridae (Venus clams), featuring prominent radial ribbing and varying color patterns from creamy white to deep violet hues.
-Arca Noae (Noah's Ark): A notable specimen (approx. 4-5 cm) showing the characteristic "ark" shape and rugged periostracum.
-Gastropods: Several Cerithium (Needle whelks) with high-spired shells, alongside various Trochidae (Top shells) displaying beautiful spiral growth patterns.
All shells are in their natural state. Some specimens show natural weathering and sea-worn textures, which adds to their authentic character. No artificial coatings or polishes have been applied.
The items will be carefully packed to ensure safe delivery and shipped with a tracking number.
