My position as well—in fact, a puristic restriction to nacre (vs calcareous—yes, I am a NCN too…) has subsequently aided focus. As stated, conchs were discovered by old money long ago. My considerations on the two pieces shown were just serious enough to procure the offers. Can't say that I wasn't at least a little bit tempted—but let's just chalk it up to the satisfaction of overwhelming curiosity. At least half the fun is the discovery process.
