NoteFor offer here is ONE OFF CHANCE to acquire such a SUPREME example a Rottnest Island Z.venusta. Rarely do we find vensuata's as DARK as this and often they are flawed or have sand graining across the dorsum. This specimen is of INCREDIBLE QUALITY show by the GLASS DORSUM of which is a mostly BLACK PATTERN with hints of ORANGE and GOLD breaking up the otherwise very intense, dark colouration. An incredible STRONG BLUE HALO separates the dorsum from the immaculate GREY MARGINS. This is overall one of the NICEST specimens of which we have offered up from our private collection and certainly a ONE OF A KIND SHELL. GEM+ condition. HIGHEST QUALITY I HAVE SEEN FOR SUCH A SUPERB SHELL. Live taken from a large grey sponge on the side of a massive limestone rock formation, covered with various sponges and marine life at 28m by licensed shell diver Thomas Daly. 3.5 Nautical Miles North of Rottnest Island, W.A. March 2025 *White marks are from camera reflection. Please ask about further images*
