This operculum takes its name from The Legend of the martyr of Saint Lucia.

The eye of St. Lucia is considered as a lucky charm, a guardian angel.

This shell is presented only in the Mediterranean but we find shell opercula in the warm seas, Indian Ocean, China Sea ... These opercula that you will find on our site resemble the eye of Saint Lucia of the Mediterranean that is why these are commonly called Saint Lucia....Despite this confusion connoisseurs make the difference between the 2 shells....
