  • Teeth? Whose?

  • Pieces of shell i think Frankie. Conus x
  • Thanks Sarah. I know it`s a perfectly serious piece but I think it`s fun - like a large upper set of false teeth, Faysal!!

  • nice piece.

  • I must admit, I had the same associations as Frankie :-)

    Interesting piece and I guess not easy to find...

  •  some of the teeth look real, but i believe some of them, as Sarah said, are shell. When i saw that for the first time, i was shocked, i couldn't even touch that and it was my first time to see such.

  • My younger grandghildren would love to spook each other with this!

    Of course the more commercially minded of them would try putting it under their pillows, hopeful that the tooth fairy might donate a small fortune for it!

    This is the first time I have seen such a piece, too, Faysal.

  • haha; that will be a huge fortune because there are more than 31teeth and i believe the fairy wont be able to grant a wish for every tooth!

  • I think it`s good to get some amusement from a piece which might otherwise seem a bit scary!
