These polished clams are so smooth and tactile that it’s no surprise that they are often used in lava shell massage. Sold as a matched pair, with the two halves of the bivalves glued together, they come in pastel shades of pinks, creams and pale yellows.
Bivalve shells are so called because they are composed two, usually similar, hinged parts called valves. The earliest bivalve fossils found date to the early Cambrian period, making them more than 500 million years old.
These typically measure around 7cm across. Colours and sizes will vary; these are natural shells and the photograph is of a typical example, not the shell you will receive. If you have any particular requests in terms of colour or size, please pop them in the notes - we’ll do our best to find the shell that comes closest to what you want!
