| Item | # 0002440019 | | Family | Cypraeidae | | Name | Zoila eludens - OUTSTANDING GIANT , Raybaudi Massilia, L., 1991 |
| Size | 66 mm |
| Locality | Australia |
| Note | An outstanding ultra-large specimen of what is termed amongst Australian Zoila collectors the 'oceanic' form, exhibiting the characteristic massive, broad, flanged, ultra-heavy ventrum. Hypermature, with incredible overall solidity, and great weight to size ratio. Although the price of standard and below average specimens has somewhat diminished over recent years, enormous 'oceanic' specimens of exceptional quality, such as the current specimen, remain greatly prized, and continue to command very high premiums. It is far more difficult than most collectors imagine to obtain an 'oceanic' specimen of this size and quality. A rare opportunity for an advanced Zoila specialist to set their own price for a BEST of the best 'oceanic' giant. Size: 66 mm (length). Grading: Gem. Data: Off north-western coast of Muiron Islands, Exmouth, Gascoyne Region, Western Australia, Australia; upon sand substrate, upon sponge; 42 m; dived; 1999. Provenance: JES private collection; Melbourne/London. |
