When Ringtop Cowry shells are treated with acid, the yellow is removed and the purple color underneath is revealed. The purple cowry shells are 0.5" to 0.75" long. They are undrilled.  There are approximately 1,500 shells in a kilogram bag. As these are natural items with varying sizes, assume that there can be a 10% to 15% variation in this count.
