    DARK GEM! Cypraea globulus #11 17.4mm,
    Linnaeus 1758,
    EXQUISITE BEAUTY from the Philippines
    .  Found by a diver in 60 feet of water under rubble, Palawan Island, Philippines, 2020.
    You know, I think I would have an impossible time if I ever got to go shell collecting in the Philippines
    , I mean really...  just think of it, you're out there picking shell up off of the beach, looking under rocks, snorkeling, scuba diving even, and everywhere you look, you find shells like this!?  And you're not going to try to bring them all home!?  My mom, Ruth Fair took a group to Tahiti to go shell collecting, and what I remember most about her stories when she got back, (besides the photo of just one rock she had turned over, and under it I counted ten
    different
    cowries!) was the problems they encountered in trying to
    clean
    what they collected before they had to get back on the plane!  Yep, I think shell collecting would be pretty tough there.
    .  Anyhow, as you can see, it would be tough not keeping
    everything
    if you knew they would look as
    terrific
    as this small, exquisite
    dark
    GEM will sitting on your shelf!
    The perfect shell for a first-class collection.
    As for normal disclaimers, we do the best we can with photos, but color is tricky, especially since cell phone cameras automatically lean towards flesh-tone coloring, (that's why so many of the photos of shells on eBay show up with more orange than is really there, the camera changes the color, and damm if I can figure out how to stop that from happening, but I try, honest!
    As for feedback, as your know, sellers live and die by the feedback you leaved, (please leave fives!) so if you have a problem, just let me know!  After all, I'm retired, and all messages go directly to my phone, so unless I'm out shell collecting I will get back to you pronto-like!
    Shell collecting!  Now there's a phrase that brings smiles to your eyes, doesn't it!
    Anyhow, if you have read this far, you have my apologies and best wishes from those of us at IslandShells323.  And don't forget,
    Home is where your collection is!
