Most cotton is made from cellulose and it will damage the shells. The (weak) acidic quality of the cotton is responsible for bleaching the colour of the shell, especially where it touches the shell. It's called Bynes Disease. Especially thin shells and microshells can crumble after a number of years. Therefore best to use synthetic cotton.

Where are those acrylic boxes from? The museum style display? Where can I get them in the US?

Hi, in the US I can’t tell. I ordered from China directly. But you shall find them on websites dedicated to plastic pearls. m.doreenbeads.com/fr/plastic-adjustable-beads-organizer-container-storage-box-rectangle-clear-19.5cm-x-14cm7-58x-5-48-1-piece-24-compartments-4?childId=32343

Great video! I love your passion for seashells and your collections are beautiful. Do you happen to know anywhere you can buy a large box like the one you show at 11:05 online?
