Good Morning! My name is Glenda. I had recently
found your website, and what a great job!! I had ordered a conch shell with
horn in it to be a part of my sons wedding on the beach in south carolina. It
was the Unity Horn in their ceremony. That was the best part of the wedding. I
appreciate you getting it to me so quickly, in about 4 business days. I have
lots of nautical decor in my home, I am sure I will be shopping here
frequently. Thanx Again,
Glenda from
Indiana

In January of 2008, the Kansas City Symphony, in which I am Principal
Trombone, programmed "The Night of the Maya" by Mexican composer Silvestre
Revueltas, and I was given the opportunity to play the prominent part for
conch shell in the final movement. The staff of the KCS managed to find a
conch shell for me, but I was convinced I could do better. Before I found
the Legendary Shells webpage, I had no idea how much better I could do. The
instrument I acquired from Legendary Shells for the performance was more
than ideal, it was perfect. The beautiful conch shell had a rope lanyard to
assist in holding the instrument and was also affixed with a brass ring
similar to a trombone mouthpiece rim. The sound was robust and captivating.
The shell also gave me about an octave of tones to work with; this was
particularly helpful, since in the Revueltas piece, there is a long cadenza
for improvised percussion---for the first time in my career, I found myself
trading improvised riffs on the conch shell with a percussionist on bass
drum. The audience as well as my colleagues absolutely loved it.
I highly recommend the conch shell horns made by Legendary Shells. Anyone
who desires one of these noble instruments for either personal or
professional application should look no further.
Roger Oyster
Principal Trombone,
Kansas City Symphony
By PAUL HORSLEY
The Kansas City Star
It is a marvelous collection of “primitive” Latin American imagery, from
the splashy opening to the pleasantly irregular rhythms of the “Jaranas” to
the clicks and clacks of the huge ensemble of exotic instruments. There were
bongos, indigenous drums, guiro — you name it. Trombonist Roger Oyster was
even called upon at one point to play a monotone ostinato on a
conch shell !

Dear Robert,
My Triton Horn was delivered about 11:00 a.m. this morning. The shell is
exquisite!
I opened the box right away to confirm that there was no damage, but did
not disturb your internal wrapping. I want my friend, for whom this is a
gift, to share in that part of the unwrapping.
So the shell will not sound until tomorrow. I have complete confidence,
having spoken with you and seen the truth of your words about the shell
and your experience with packing and delivery, that the quality of this
exceptional Triton will fully live up to my expectations.
I thank you for your your craftsmanship, your service and your kindness.
Sincerely,
Margaret Zacharias

We received the beautiful half dollar sized’ sand
dollars. You said you would hand pick our order and they were perfect!
There was a tiny chip on one of the sand dollars but your inclusion of
several extra more than made up for it. Our sand dollars were glued onto
beautiful white on white embossed cone shaped boxes and secured with a
tiny satin chocolate brown ribbon, They were so elegant and the perfect
treasure box for my personalized M & M’s. I can’t tell you how pleased we
were with your safe packaging and quick delivery. You made us happy.
My son and his fiancé’
were surprised and very pleased with the favors at their Rehearsal
Dinner. Many, many compliments were given on the perfect sand dollars
which matched our invitation and has now become a significant part of
their wedding weekend memories. I would absolutely recommend you to all
and expect to order from you again.
Our next trip to Florida will most
definitely include a visit to your shop!
Thank you so
much for making our event such a special one,

The lamps arrived in perfect condition, and
right on time.
They are BEAUTIFUL. They have been a hit with

The Department heads about fell over when they

Many, many thanks once again.

Mr. Conch King,
Thank You so much for making sure my beautiful Nautilus
Shells arrived to me safely. When I got inside the wrapping and saw them,
I was literally speechless. They are so beautiful! I am using mine at my
garden wedding in October. In the gardens they have strick rules on what
you can have at the ceremony and prohibit fire, so we can't light a unity
candle. So I am using the shells and filling them with sand and we will
pour them into a beautiful vase together to symbolize our families
uniting. So thank you so much for taking such an interest in providing the
best quality and promptness around!!
With Much Gratitude!

Dear Robert,
This is Lance from Pueblo, Colorado. I just received the Caribbean Conch
shell that I ordered and I must say I am thrilled with it. It is the
largest conch shell I have ever seen and the different shades of pink in
the inside of it go beautifully with the wine and burgundy accent colors
of my home. I have it sitting upright on my oak coffee table in my living
room and have really enjoyed just looking at it and admiring the
incredible natural beauty of the this creation from the sea. I can see
that it is in excellent condition. The outer edge of the lip of the shell
is so smooth and I can seen where it was probably trimmed down and
smoothed out to make it look absolutely beautiful. As I may of mentioned
to you before I have paid much more for seashells from other companies and
to my disappointment many of them were dirty, chipped or even cracked. I
can see from this conch shell, that you truly do take the time to clean
and polish every shell you sell to make each one the best that it can
be. I am so glad I found your web site. You will have me for a customer
for life. Thanks so much
Sincerely,
Lance Yorgason

Dear Conch King,
The Conchs were a big hit with our wedding party as gifts. They also made
a fabulous sound before my wife walked down the aisle. I wanted to thank
you for getting these items to me in a timely fashion and ensuring the
beauty and quality of the shell. My wife cried when I gave her the Giant
Triton Horn that included the engraving on the lanyard. It felt like we
were in the Islands with the beautiful setting and sound of the horns. I
have included some picks as attachments.
Thank you again for adding that extra effect to our special day.

Dear Legendary Shells,
This year I purchased several shell oil lamps and one
conch horn for gifts for my friends and family. Everyone simply loved how
beautiful and unique their gifts were. The oil lamps are stunning when lit,
and the conch horn was one of the best gifts ever! The sound of the horn is
deep and robust! Moreover, I was so pleased at the quality with which the
lamps are made. Each one is a true work of art. The shells they are made
from are first-rate. I was delighted to be able to give them to my friends
and family this year for Christmas. I look forward to purchasing from you
the next time I need a special gift for someone.

Robert,
I received the conch sailing horn yesterday and it is awesome.
It is hard to get a sense of how impressive they are until you see it in
person. It will make the perfect gift.
Thank you,
Brad Hyman

Dear Robert,
I received the conch horn
that I ordered. It is beyond my expectations. It is grand. It looks to good
to use. It is certainly legendary. The pictures on your website do not do
justice to the product you are sending out. Thank you very much.

We are absolutely thrilled with
all the shells! They are even more beautiful than we expected! The horn is
wonderful, I'm sure our son will love it. The lamps are gorgeous and will be a
big hit at the wedding. Thank you for such a wonderful product and super fast
service! The engraved plate looks great. I was concerned about what toll the
shipping would have on the shells, but you packed them exceptionally!
Everything was in perfect condition. Thanks again!!

again, I can tell. They are set up in MY house already, and shining
bright! THank you for your correspondence, I look forward to doing

Hi Robert!
My shipment arrived yesterday and I just wanted
to tell you how very much I LOVE Them! They are exquisite. I just placed
another order (somehow I missed ordering the conch shell lamps!). Anyway,
thanks again. My spring open house is April 1st so if you could get them to me
ASAP I'd surely appreciate it.

Dear Legendary Shells,
This year I purchased several shell oil lamps and one
conch horn for gifts for my friends and family. Everyone simply loved how
beautiful and unique their gifts were. The oil lamps are stunning when lit,
and the conch horn was one of the best gifts ever! The sound of the horn is
deep and robust! Moreover, I was so pleased at the quality with which the
lamps are made. Each one is a true work of art. The shells they are made
from are first-rate. I was delighted to be able to give them to my friends
and family this year for Christmas. I look forward to purchasing from you
the next time I need a special gift for someone.
Sincerely,
Ben Keay
Leesburg, VA

Subject: Re: Large Conch Shell horn in 'E'
(high)
Dear Robert,
My horn is beautiful. It
arrived Wednesday, in time to begin toughening up my poor lip. It is just a
bit low, but if I make sure not to block the opening with my hand at all, it
is just high enough to qualify as a "folk instrument 'E' ". It's so much
easier to play (with the brass mouthpiece) than my other conch, and has a big
round sound. My challenge will be to play it softly when required, and to
have the endurance needed on it. (It plays almost continuously for several
minutes).
I don't actually play it
with the orchestra until Wednesday, but I heard a recording of the piece today
(Revueltas "Night of the Maya"). It's wild, loud, and sounds like a Human
Sacrifice Convention. The horn on my recording is actually playing a 'C', and
sounds rather wimpy and erratic. I hope I can do better.
Thanks so much for your prompt
service and excellent product.

The fox pair looks awesome with the Triton and the pearl nautilus is
absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Thank you so very much! Sorry I haven’t been back to
you sooner---cooking for Thanksgiving is a “multi-day” affair at my house.
LOL! I am so pleased with all the lamps—they are so unique and are the
perfect centerpiece for our “sea-themed” holiday table.
Holiday

Wholefoods Store Opening
Not only did everyone at the
store LOVE the horn, but it was a huge hit at the charity benefit we threw
in the store. The seafood team was so into it, that when we opened to the
public today, they were using it all day as a "call to seafood".....the
customers thought it was a blast.
When I get the pictures back
from our photographer I'll send them along.
Thanks again!
