Among the other services, The Malacological Museum of Cupra Marittima has one of the most well-stocked seashells shops in the world. There are over 10.000 seashells species from all over the world. In addition to collection or souvenir shells,  an infinite number of different articles made of shell and mother-of-pearl is available in the shop.
These objects come from Philippines, China, Thailand, Vietnam and many other countries. There is also a section dedicated to the cameos of Torre del Greco and to mother-of-pearl.
Books, stamps, old malacological printings, jewels and other articles  made with shells are also available.
The naturalistic variety of the shop includes also fossils and minerals. There is also a “malacological boutique” providing  ties, handkerchiefs, scarfs all decorated with shell subjects and hand made in best quality silk.
The shop has the same opening timetable of  the exhibition. Main credit cards and currencies are accepted.
