Pseudocypraea Taxidermy full body mount - Cassis rufa...

Cypraecassis rufa. The "Red Cowrie" is a species of marine gastropod mollusk also known as the red helmet shell or cameo shell, since it has historically been considered the ideal raw material for cameo engravers, especially in the historic goldsmith tradition of Torre del Greco in Italy. Artisans carve the light upper layer to shape the desired figure (often female profiles or mythological scenes), leaving the darker underlying layer intact to create the background, thus achieving an extraordinary three-dimensional effect. The shell is formed by overlapped layers of contrasting colors: a light superficial layer (white-cream) and a dark inner layer (orange-brown). This species is mainly distributed in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific, and its shell is valued by collectors worldwide for its aesthetic qualities. This Red Cowrie absolutely captivates with the line of the lips—perfect and sinuous—its huge lips with saturated colors, but also with its truly significant size. The more you observe it, the more you feel a geometrical precision, an almost unnatural aesthetics, and precisely for this reason so particularly fascinating. A lot absolutely to be conquered.

The purpose is purely aesthetic but also exemplary: it shows the real object inside an artificially generated scenography.
