    Every now and then a shell comes along that's a
    Wow!!!
    A one-of-a-kind
    show-stopper, an ultra-rare shell that takes your breath away...
    an elite shell---
    GIANT GEM! Voluta bednalli 126.0mm,
    Brazier 1878,
    ULTRA RARE GEM GIANT from N. Australia
    .  From a collection of
    magnificent
    shells put together by a master.  You know, it is really hard to hype a shell like this one---
    a giant GEM bednalli volute,
    I mean, how am I supposed to top that?
    Trawled live in 150 meters of water off of a muddy bottom, Torres Straits, N Australia, 2005.  It is very hard to express how unusual it is for a shell this size to be a GEM---it's simply incredible!  In fact, all you have to do is do a quick search online, and you will see that shells of this size (or bigger) are in terrible shape, which is what you would expect from a giant shell that's been knocked around the block a few times, if you know what I mean, yet this one is GORGEOUS!
    .  Amazing.
    .  Anyhow, as the photos show, this richly colored, flawless beauty is a one-of-kind, ultra-rare giant GEM, a shell that few will
    ever
    have in their collection, and of course, would look
    fantastic
    sitting on your shelf!
    The ultra-perfect shell for a first-class collection.
    As for normal disclaimers, we do the best we can with photos, but color is tricky, especially since cell phone cameras automatically lean towards flesh-tone coloring, (that's why so many of the photos of shells on eBay show up with more orange than is really there, the camera changes the color, and damm if I can figure out how to stop that from happening, but I try, honest!
    As for feedback, as your know, sellers live and die by the feedback you leaved, (please leave fives!) so if you have a problem, just let me know!  After all, I'm retired, and all messages go directly to my phone, so unless I'm out shell collecting I will get back to you pronto-like!
    Shell collecting!  Now there's a phrase that brings smiles to your eyes, doesn't it!
    Anyhow, if you have read this far, you have my apologies and best wishes from those of us at IslandShells323.  And don't forget,
    Home is where your collection is!
