It's difficult to tell whether it's a real shell that has been dipped or not due to the quality of detail. To avoid any representation issues, I'll simply state that it 'could' be the real thing. The organic shape is incredibly beautiful, and the shell is detailed on all sides. It measures approximately 4.5" wide, 3.5" deep, and 1.5" high, and weighs almost 3 pounds! Given its weight, it could also be made entirely of pewter, but I cannot be certain. Regardless, it's a stunning piece that presents beautifully! I also have a nautilus shell (SOLD) and a cowrie shell for sale separately, together they make a wonderful collection! less
