Abalone Rectangle 10x14mm

$4531 $6970

SKU: 64AB558-F

These 10x14mm abalone or paua shell rectangles come on a 15-16" strand, giving you a generous run of naturally iridescent shell in a clean, graphic shape that's ready to anchor a design.

Abalone and paua shell carry their own built-in shimmer — layers of nacre shift through greens, blues, and purples depending on the light, so no two beads read exactly the same.

What to make with them

The flat rectangular shape sits beautifully in single-strand statement necklaces and is a natural fit for bead-woven bezels or wrapped pendants; try stringing them with spacers for Southwest-inspired pieces or dropping one solo as a focal in a pair of earrings.

Natural materials vary in color, pattern, and size. The beads you receive may differ slightly from the product photos — this is a characteristic of natural materials, not a defect.

Description

Abalone AKA Paua Shell is one of the ocean's most radiant gems. Paua is a particularly stunning species of Abalone (Haliotis iris) found along the coast of New Zealand. Abalone shells are dark and dull on the outer surface, but the inside nacre displays a miraculous play of light and color. The hypnotically undulating colors within the shell exhibit an iridescent shimmer comparable to opal. These Abalone shell beads are coated in a protective lacquer that also enhances the sheen of the bead. The color and pattern of each Abalone is totally unique and will vary between bead to bead.
