Product Details
These purple top tiger cowrie shells, Cypraea tigris, measure between approximately 2-1/2 inches and 3-1/2 inches in size.  The outer layer of the tiger cowry shell has been removed exposing a pretty purple layer.   Purple top polished cowrie shells are prized by shell collectors and used in seashell decor by displaying them in baskets and glass containers. The tiger cowrie is a familiar shell to many people. This very common Indo Pacific reef species is exported to the U.S. and Europe for the tourist trade.
