Sold to me way back when, as a "smooth-shouldered irvinae."
This shell is quite magnificent, a GEM with the possible caveat of some fine grains of dark sand as inclusions on the ventral side, just visible in the lower photo. Color is amazing, far superior to your run-of-the-mill C. irvinae. Aperture color especially astounding - a deep orange-red, better than in the photo. Simply beautiful all around. Higher resolution images on request. |
