BC058 Zoila rosselli f. flamenco – LARGE BEAUTY

This is a huge specimen of the rare Abrolhos islands form of rosselli, probably the most desired one by cowries collectors. Large and very heavy shell with the typical callous shape, great pattern with bronze window on top, pale chocolate base with some orange, very good extremities. The shell isn’t fully gem only because of a very tiny pale stain under gloss on dorsum, otherwise it’s a superb piece for collection. (K)
