Large White Fan Coral from Nassau Bahamas c1960

RARE Large White Fan Coral from Nassau Bahamas c1960. This huge piece of white Fan Coral is quite unusual to find. This Fan Coral was purchased and brought out of the Bahamas in the early 1990's. It was found in a jewelry store where the owner was using it as a display for pearls. The owner told our consignor that it was acquired by him up in 1960. Our consignor obtained all the legal permits needed at that time to bring it out of the country. We have copies of documents from the Department of Agriculture dated 14th January 1994 allowing it to be exported to the United States. Documents title, Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora Ministry of Agriculture PO Box N-3028 Nassau,Bahamas. We are not positive but be believe pieces like this one are no longer allowed to be exported. This white Fan Coral measures 48 inches deep, 47 inches wide and approx 17 inches high. It was set in to a concrete base so it can be displayed. Shipping extra. Connecticut residents and buyers picking up in Connecticut add 6% state sales tax. Buyers outside the USA are responsible for any taxes,tariffs or customs that might apply.*** If you wish to see examples of similar items we have sold and/or appraised please go to our affiliate site www.OneofaKindAntiques.com and click the Archives / Homepage logo ***
