Sold individually","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese lovely purple shells have quite a story.  Unlike the molluscs we usually think of, the creatures that made these don't live on a substrate - they each create a raft of bubbles and float on the ocean surface, a pelagic lifestyle!  I also personally found these, on a black sand beach in New Zealand, washed ashore along with white spirula shells.  I was so excited that I forgot to take a photo, much to my regret.  Each one is carefully mounted on a gold-plated brass stand.  When you handle these, please do so by the base, not the shell itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI think that I have specimens here that can work in both 1:12 and 1:24 scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLeft: 1\/2 inch (1.3 cm) wide, 3\/4 inches (1.9 cm)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e tall.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCentre: 3\/8 inch (0.95 cm) wide, 11\/16 inch (1.75 cm) tall.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRight: 1\/4 inch (0.6 cm) wide, 9\/16 inch (1.4 cm) tall.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wendy's Miniatures","offers":[{"title":"Left","offer_id":49090932670603,"sku":"9738","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Centre","offer_id":49090932703371,"sku":"9739","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Right","offer_id":49090932736139,"sku":"9740","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/1588\/7755\/files\/9738-_9739-_9740-janthina-shells.jpg?v=1787866200","url":"https:\/\/wendysminiatures.com\/products\/purple-janthina-shells-sold-individually","provider":"Wendy's Miniatures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
