Gastropod Sea shell - Charonia Tritonis

Very beautiful large specimen from an old private collection.

This piece impresses with its generous dimensions (29 cm) and the quality of its coloration, alternating cream, brown and caramel tones. The particularly wide and well-preserved opening highlights the natural aesthetics of the shell.

Its imposing size makes it an ideal piece for a shell collection, a cabinet of curiosities, or refined interior decoration.

The specimen presents a good overall condition with a natural patina consistent with its age and decorative use.

Provenance: old private collection.
