I’m bb, a shell collector and a hopelessly devoted enthusiast of marine specimens.
01
CIRCUIT
It is not just about selling shells through a screen. I regularly travel to Europe for shell shows, including the 2026 Belgium International Shell Show, and prefer sitting with longtime collectors to examine specimens and discuss locality details in person, making every exchange genuine and trustworthy.
02
PROVENANCE
Sourced across China, the Philippines, and Japan (Aichi, Okinawa, Mie and more), with locality and scale recorded for every specimen.
03
ASIAN NETWORK
Looking for a deep-water species, rare color morph or exact scale? We source and verify specimens through trusted Asian dealer, collector and diver networks.
The 2026 Belgium International Shell Show was even livelier than I had imagined. I carried a box of shells from Asian waters across half the world and finally met in person the European collectors I had spent so long talking with online. I even brought home a few pieces that caught my eye. Moments like this are what make being a shell collector so captivating.
