Exotic treasure - MM242

This is probably the most exotic object at home, the shell of the Fluted Giant Clam, given to me as a souvenir from The Philippines. Glad to say it's not in danger of extinction nor forbidden to have. See the shape from the other side and with more colour in the extras, it fits in two hands.
For MonoMonday with hanks to Ellaphant for hosting this month.

Thanks very much for your kind comments and stars for yesterday's Blip, glad to say I've had a reply to my email this morning and will have a meeting about volunteering next week :-)
