Tectus Pyramis is the Latin name for the shells known as Pyramid Tops or Green Tops.  With a diameter of approximately 2 ¼” across this shell makes a unique knob or pull.  The face is a beautiful mother of pearl with silver and green shadings down the sides of the shell.   Knobs and pulls are sold in pairs.  Empty seashells are made into strong knobs, pulls, and tableware. These decorative fittings are of high quality and resistant to tension and torsion.  Being made from shells found in nature means that each shell is unique.  Coloration and patterns will vary slightly between shells of the same species.  Main patents: Europe 09369960, USA 6351873
