• Surface Protection: Place the shell on a fire-safe dish or stand to prevent heat damage to your altar or furniture.

• Cleaning: Gently rinse with warm water and air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals to preserve the shell's natural luster.

Each shell is a unique creation of nature—no two are alike. Please expect variations in size, color, and iridescence, making every piece one of a kind.
