Type of shell:Syrinx aruanus, common name the Australian trumpet or false trumpet, is a species of extremely large sea snail measuring up to 91 cm long and weighing up to 18 kg. It is a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Turbinellidae, and is the only species in the genus Syrinx.
This is the largest living snail (shelled gastropod) species in the world, and arguably the largest (heaviest) gastropod in the world. Although the shell itself is quite well known to shell collectors because of its extraordinary size, little is known about the ecology and behavior of the species, except for one study about its feeding habits.
This species occurs in the northern half of Australia and adjacent areas, including eastern Indonesia and Papua New Guinea.
These giant snails live on sandy bottoms in the intertidal zone and the sublittoral down to about 30 meters.
It has not been over fished and this snail is locally very common.
It is fished for food / consumption.
Pinna Pen shell – Atrina inflata are large saltwater clams sometimes known as pen shells. They are marine bivalve mollusks.
Pen pearl is a term used for pearls from the shell species Pinna. This species is found in the waters of the Indian and Pacific Ocean and also in the Mediterranean. These shells produce both nacreous and non-nacreous pearls. The pearls often exhibit a dark grey to black body color with overtones of bright green, blue, purple, silver, and pink.
We buy natural pearls directly from the divers throughout the Indo Pacific region.
Found in the pristine tropical waters off the coast of the New Guinea.
Origin :This shell carving is handcrafted in Bali (Indonesia) by our in-house Balinese master shell carvers.
