NoteSPECIAL SALE – MASTERPIECES OF THE JES COLLECTION: This MAGNIFICENT specimen unquestionably ranks amongst the finest known examples. ULTRA-RARE SIZE and QUALITY. Exceedingly few specimens are known exhibiting this combination of size and quality. The overwhelming majority of specimens are small, subadult examples, with poorly developed, twig-like varices, and ill-balanced proportions, and are decidedly unattractive aesthetically. Only when seen at the level of the current specimen – at the zenith of expression for the species – is its true nature apparent. Exceedingly well-preserved varices, with expansive, spatulate terminations to varical spines. Supremely balanced proportions. Minute, ultra-delicate protoconch INTACT – very important for the connoisseur. An extremely rare opportunity for a highly advanced Muricidae specialist to set their own price for one of the finest known specimens of this supreme rarity. Data: Off Balicasag, Panglao, Bohol, Philippines; upon mud/sand substrate; 100-200 m; tangle nets; 2020. Size: 61.7 mm. Grading: Gem; w/o. Provenance: JES Collection; London / Melbourne.
