In the summer, foraging at The Beach yields the Rainbow Shell. It may be collected during the off-seasons by using the Traveling Cart or the Mines after activating the Shrine of Challenge or completing the Danger In The Deep quest.
It may also be received as a gift from Jas or Vincent at the Feast of the Winter Star, or it could be sent in the mail as a present from Demetrius. When the population of a Rainbow Trout Fish Pond reaches 9, it has a 2% chance of producing 1 Rainbow Shell every day.
