Tibetan Buddhism     
Today, in its greatly tamed avatar, the conch is used in Tibetan Buddhism to call together religious assemblies
 During the actual practice of rituals, it is used both as a musical instrument and as a container for holy water.
 The Left-spiraling movement of such a conch is believed to echo the celestial motion of the sun, moon, planets and stars across the heavens

       Vajrayana Buddhism absorbed the conch as a symbol which fearlessly proclaimed the truth of the dharma
 Among the eight symbols, it stands for the fame of the Buddha's teaching, which spreads in all directions like the sound of the conch trumpet

In addition to Buddha's throat, the conch also appears as an auspicious mark on the soles, palms, limbs, breast or forehead of a divinely endowed being.

To hold a conch is to hold the history of the sea and some of it's most ancient sounds
To "Conch" Someone is to Honor them by blowing the Conch in their Tribute or Remembrance

The first thing you must have to make great Seashell horns trophy gifts are great shells
No one has conch shells like we do in all of America
We import all of our Conch shells from countries where they police their resource to where it is sustainable and is never overfished
So our cost is higher but the Conch as a species is sustained and  will be for many years to come.
Conch are only overfished in some places and we do not import from those countries at all
In fact the Federal Department Fish and Wildlife does quite a good job prohibiting import to this country of Conch from any country
That is in fact overfishing their resource. So in the end it is better for everyone who loves shells and of course the conch themselves !
