MARBLED GIANT BARNACLE SPECIMEN

$120.00

Megabalanus Tintinnabulum is a large marine barnacle featuring pink and purple marbling that resembles a cluster of bells (thus the Latin tintinnabulum or ‘small bells’).

No Enlightenment collection was complete without specimens of the natural world, and travelers of the Grand Tour often returned home with examples of exotic geological and marine formations. Add this specimen to your shelf or tablescape for a bit of authentic curiosity.

Dimensions: H4¾ x W7 x 4½ inches

Shown in The Grand Tour installation featuring the edible sculptures of Andrea Ferrero’s Architectural Digestion. Learn More about the project here.
