Gastropod Sea shell - NAUTILIUS POMPILUS (No reserve price)

DTD SHOP presents to you this magnificent specimen of a shell: the pearly nautilus shell also called Nautilus pompilius. The pearly nautilus is a fascinating mollusk, a symbol of natural perfection. This logarithmic spiral shell is distinguished by its smooth shell, covered with iridescent nacre that catches light from different angles, creating reflections with soft and iridescent hues. Its internal structure is just as remarkable, made up of perfectly partitioned chambers in which the nautilus adjusts its gas volume to float or dive at will. This spiral organization testifies to gradual, harmonious growth, reflecting the mathematical order present in nature. Often compared to a living fossil, the nautilus belongs to a family older than 500 million years, making it a precious witness to marine evolution. Its delicate appearance and subtle patterns make it an object of contemplation for sea lovers and a symbol of timeless natural beauty. - Dimensions: photos. - Weight: about 190 grams. - Condition: Flawless.
