WOW! WOW! WOW! Saw a video on YouTube how these were made. I picked this one. First, The shipping was CRAZY FAST!, they package it extremely well. This is just STUNNING! These do tend to be on the small size, I compared almost all of them and picked the black in this pattern with butterflies. I am so happy with it I intend to buy the second largest one next month to replace my other jewelry box. I also plan to get a few of the little trinket boxes as well. Craftsmanship is top notch quality and well worth what you have to pay for them. Camera pictures just dont capture the smoothness of the surface and the color,. The shell is very vibrant and iridescent, just gorgeous! BRAVO!
