Purple Clam shell
Latin name - Saxidomus purpuratus
The "Purple Clam" shell is an extremely sturdy and attractive shell available in a number of sizes. A great product for Stuffed Clam, Clams Casino and many other applications. Some great internal colour variations, solid to the touch and perfectly formed for food presentation.
A very similar shell to the "Quahog" or "Hard Clam" shell.
We have various grades within a 5 to 13+cm size range (measured at their widest point).
