Personalized Virgo Cone Sea Shells
Bring a taste of the exotic to your party or special event with our delightful Personalized Virgo Cone Sea Shells. From the far shores of the Indo-Pacific Oceans, these unique shells are polished till they shine, revealing deep peach and cream colors that only further accent the natural spiral of the shell. Cultivated from nature, these beautiful shells are completely unique favors for your guests, with no two being exactly alike.
Pick one up and the spiral turns under your thumb, cream deepening into peach wherever the polish catches the light. It is a real shell, shaped by the ocean long before it reached your table, and that is exactly why guests keep it. A printed card gets left behind on the chair. A shell this size, 2.5 to 2.75 inches long, ends up on a desk, a windowsill or a bathroom shelf, and your event comes back every time it is picked up.
The engraving is done in-house by HansonEllis, which has been personalizing gifts since 1999, and personal engraving is included with these shells. You have two short lines cut into the polished surface: two first names and a date, a thank-you to your guests, or the guest's own name so the shell doubles as a place card at every seat. Perfect for the beach or pirate-themed parties or events, or even as favors for your big day, these special little favors will help your guests remember your event for a long time to come.
Line them down the place settings, tuck one into each welcome bag, or fill a glass bowl by the door and let guests choose the one they like best. Available with personal engraving, these one-of-a-kind gifts are ready to add a wonderful splash to your party or event today. Bring a smile to your guests' faces and give them a reminder for the ages with these special little Personalized Virgo Cone Sea Shells.
Add your engraving text above, choose your quantity, and send every guest home with a piece of the ocean.

Which one should I choose
Shoppers planning beach and themed events usually weigh an engraved natural shell against the paper and plain alternatives on the table.
| Personalized Virgo Cone Sea Shells | Choose them when you want the favor and the place card to be the same object, and when a real, naturally unique shell suits the setting better than anything printed. |
|---|---|
| A printed paper place card | Choose it only when you need names on the table and nothing else; it does not go home with the guest. |
| A plain, unengraved sea shell | Choose it for table scatter and decor; without engraving it carries no names, no date and no reason to keep it. |
For a beach or themed event, the engraved shell does both jobs at once, which is why it beats a paper card and a plain shell on the same table.
