Description & Application:

Natural blue limpet shell with distinctive radiating markings and iridescent interior. Shells are supplied as a "pick 'n mix" of sizes making them idea for crafts and interior/exterior decoration. The shells have been thoroughly cleaned and are suitable for table decoration.

The majority of limpet species can be found adhering to rocks or other hard surfaces and once covered by algae they can often closely resemble the surface itself

Limpets usually live in the intertidal zone and remain safely attached both during severe wave action and in direct sunlight during low tide.

Interestingly some species return to the same spot on the rock just before the tide recedes. In such species, the shape of their shell often grows to match the contours of the rock helping it to adhere more securely

Limpets are cooked and eaten in many different parts of the world, for example: in Hawaii and Portugal limpets are considered a delicacy.

PLEASE NOTE: Some shells may not be intact or whole.
