FAQs
Are all 6 shells really the same brand? Yes — every shell in this lot is genuine Rio brand with matching headstamps, though the writing on each hull can vary slightly.
Are these safe to handle and ship? Yes. Every shell is spent and inert, with no propellant or live primer, and each is individually inspected for rust, dents, dings, and scratches before shipping.
What does "high brass" mean? High brass refers to the extra-large brass base on the shell — it's a genuine structural feature of this shell, not an added embellishment, and it's what we hand-polish to a bright gold shine.
Can these be used for a wedding boutonniere? Yes — this is one of our most popular uses for these shells, along with table card holders and centerpieces.
Will the color be exactly what I see in the photos? We do our best to represent the true color, but shades can vary slightly by monitor, device, or lighting — reach out for extra photos before you order if you'd like to confirm.
