For small shells there are stand-lens, magnifier, with a scale in mm that would measures up to 40 mm or more.
You can put the stand-lens upon the shells to measure.

Linda,
Amway used to make a rust remover. I think they still make one under a
different name. It is a bit acidic so temper the mixture with a bit of
baking soda.

Some exhibits ago, I mounted some miniatures on pins to make them more
visible. Unfortunately, some of the pins rusted. I have a golden yellow
Stomatolina rubra (Lamarck, 1822) that I want to mrescue!
