Zoila Cypraea Jeaniana Sherylae
, 68.0mm,
Raybaudi
1990,
a rare Australian beauty.
.  A
beautiful specimen
of this species that just
loves
to be photographed!   With
perfect
canals, it has a very glassy, dark brown base that turns into a deep cream color as it starts up the sides, then on to a deep blue background for the top half of the shell.  It was collected May 2018 off of blue spirastrella sponge at 31 meters, Point Quobba, West
Australia,
(you know, spell-check just
dies
when it sees all of these words!)
by one of the nicest guys I've just got to meet someday
.  Yet of all the things I could tell you about this shell, this one fact sums it up best, this is one of the few shells I have that can proudly hold up its head around the cypraea fultonis, and that's saying a lot...
A stunning rare beauty for a first-rate collection...
As for normal disclaimers and such... I have tried my best to make sure the photos are accurate color-wise, but as everyone knows, color is a... well, it's tough.  (All white marks on the shell are reflections) Between my phone changing the color due to the color of the shell, the background, how rare the shell is AND it changing color when I post it on eBay, and
then
knowing that your phone or laptop is going to do weird things to it color-wise too, well, let's just say, I tried my best, and I hope you will think so too when you hold your new beauty in your hands for the first time.
When it comes to photos, I'm having no trouble hanging onto my
humble
badge.
Second, like everyone else selling on eBay, I live and die by the feedback you leave, (please leave me fives!) so, with that in mind, please remember that I am anxiously sitting by my phone in case someone needs me to help them with something.  Being retired, I have more time on my hands than the gorgeous one thinks I should, and your messages go immediately to my phone, so if you have a problem AND if I'm not busy going door to door selling Girl Scout Cookies, (grand-daughter) I will
happily
get back to you pronto...
Retired... you know, it wasn't that long ago when the kids did their own selling, not me!
Anyhow, if you have read this far, you have my deepest apologies and a heartfelt wish from those of us at
Island Shells
of happy collecting.  Enjoy your new treasures and remember,
home is where your collection is!
