Description from the seller

A beautiful shell with an operculum. Murex Pecten—Murex Venus's Comb—is a species of large, predatory sea snail, a marine snail in the Muricidae family, a rock snail, or murex snail. The shell of this species has a very long siphonal canal and numerous spines. Dimensions: 45/65/120 mm. I highly recommend it to collectors and interior decorators.
