A striking Giant Clam Shell or 'Tridacna Gigas' c.1880.
With a superb organic flowing undulating surface, wonderful patination, natural wear and pearly pale white interior.

Note: old repairs of sand and crushed shell mortar to the centre of the shell, which simply resemble sand from the bottom of the sea.
