Exquisite natural work of art: European thorny oyster...

About the shell: An absolutely top-class specimen of the genuine European spiny oyster. The upper valve is striking with a deep, glossy wine-red to violet, with perfectly preserved spiny crowns, while the lower valve forms the characteristic, heavy and bright contrast. Origin: Southern Europe; undamaged recovered by experienced research divers in the rocky coastal regions of the Greek Aegean (e.g., near Mykonos). Habitat: Mediterranean Sea and adjacent Atlantic; it lives firmly cemented to rocky substrates and hard substrates at depths of 5 to about 40 meters, often hidden under strong currents.
