Land Snail Shells
Did you know that the science of studying gastropod shells is called conchology? Almost 90% of gastropod shells coil to the right. Oh, oh, and the color “Tyrian purple” (the purple that only emperors and royalty were allowed to - or could afford to - wear) comes from the Spiny dye-murex shell!
Shells are cool!
 Conchylien-Cabinet Lüneburg. Nicolaus Georg Gevens, 1830
