This collection features four natural marine gastropod and bivalve shells. The centerpiece is a large, heavily calcified specimen identified through visual consensus as a type of Helmet Conch (likely Cassis species). This large shell exhibits a rough, heavily weathered exterior texture and a smooth, wide aperture displaying a peach or salmon coloration on the interior lip. The lot also includes a medium-sized, ribbed shell with a cream base mottled with dark maroon speckles; a smooth, pale cream, spindle-shaped shell; and a smaller, highly-knobbed shell featuring striking orange and white banding. These specimens are suitable for nautical decor or natural history collecting.
