| Note | At virtually 90 mm, this EXCEEDINGLY RARE ULTRA-LARGE specimen is one of the FINEST I have ever encountered of this incredibly beautiful deep-water species. Extremely RARE QUALITY for such size, incorporating an exemplary level of preservation of the ultra-delicate axial varices, and exceedingly rare retention of the pin-point protoconch. High quality specimens of this rare size are much coveted ‘collector’s items’, and command a premium. A rare opportunity for the advanced Epitoniidae specialist, or admirer of rare and exquisite seashells.
