When ringtop cowry shells are treated with acid, the yellow is removed and the purple color underneath is revealed. These are 1-kilogram bags of undrilled purple ringtop cowry shells. The shells are approximately 0.5" to 0.75" long. There are approximately 1,500 shells per 1-kilogram bag. As these are natural items with varying sizes, assume that there can be a 10% to 15% variation in this count.
You will not receive the exact shells from the photos but ones similar. There is quite a bit of variety in the shells as you can see from the photos.
They can be used for a variety of crafts and jewelry.
