Cute Young Brunette Girl With Long Hair On The Bed With Sea Shells

Seashells have been used as musical instruments, wind instruments for many hundreds if not thousands of years. Most often the shells of large sea snails are used, as trumpets, by cutting a hole in the spire of the shell, or cutting off the tip of the spire altogether. Various different kinds of large marine gastropod shells can be turned into "blowing shells", however the most commonly encountered species used as "conch" trumpets are:
The sacred chank, Turbinella pyrum, known in India as the shankha. In Tibet it is known as "dung-dkar".
The Triton shell also known as "Triton's trumpet" Charonia tritonis which is used as a trumpet in Melanesian and Polynesian culture and also in Korea and Japan. In Japan this kind of trumpet is known as the horagai. In Korea it is known as the nagak. In some Polynesian islands it is known as "pu".
The Queen Conch Strombus gigas, is or was sometimes used as a trumpet in the Caribbean.
