| Note | NOTE: I am taking time off this month, and consequently offer only a few lots in this sale. It takes an enormous amount of time to prepare my usual monthly number of shells, especially the outstanding Zoila and other high-end specimens from the JES Collection. We will return next month to my usual offerings of numerous exceptional, rare, and unique specimens. AMORIA GRAYI KAWAMURAI: A very large REPRESENTATIVE specimen of this supreme rarity. Discovered by Taiwanese fishing vessels off the far North-West coast of Australia in the 1970s, and never freshly available since. Rich colour. Perfectly formed pattern. Dead-collected, as always, with a couple of patches of age discoloration, but nevertheless, a very good representative specimen for the Volutidae collection currently lacking an example. Size: 96.4 mm (length). Grading: F. Data: Off North-West coast of Australia; upon mud/sand substrate; c.200-500 m; trawled; 1970s. |
