Giant Clam Shell
A monumental 19th century giant clam shell.
Of deep ridged form, with a beautifully weathered surface, it has developed a soft, chalky patina over time.
One of the largest examples we've ever come across, think of it less as an object and more as the most impressive piece of natural sculpture you could find.
Giant clams (Tridacna gigas) are among the largest living bivalves on earth, native to the warm waters of the Indo-Pacific where they can grow to extraordinary sizes over many decades.
Hobo loves because: to put it bluntly, it's the most beautiful shell you could find, just on absolute steroids.
Height: 35cm
Width: 90cm
Depth: 63cm
