Description

Group of three natural history pieces: a tiger cowrie, Cypraea tigris, its dorsum hand-engraved through the spotted outer layer to the pink nacre beneath; a cast resin white tiger cub seated with head turned, blue eyes and airbrushed black striping; and a zip bag of white coral fragments.
