Beautiful red abalone Sea shell - Haliotis rufescens

Haliotis rufescens – Large Red Abalone Shell with Natural Barnacles A striking specimen of Haliotis rufescens, commonly known as the Red Abalone, appreciated for its broad sculptural form and warm natural coloration. This example displays attractive tones of orange, salmon, cream and soft reddish brown, arranged in subtle natural bands across the exterior surface. The combination of color and texture gives the shell a particularly warm and decorative appearance. The characteristic row of respiratory perforations is clearly visible along the shell, while the broad curved outline and layered growth structure create a strong sculptural presence. Presented on a clear acrylic stand, the specimen is ready for display and can be appreciated both as a collectible shell and as a refined natural decorative object. Dimensions: 17.5 × 13.5 × 3.8 cm.
