$4122 $6870

SKU: 53AB558-F

These 10mm flat heart beads are cut from real abalone or paua shell, bringing the shell's natural iridescence into a shape that reads clearly even in finished work.

Abalone and paua shell carry that signature rippling play of blue, green, and purple — no two beads catch the light in exactly the same way.

What to make with them

String them as focal points on a simple chain for pendants and earrings, or stitch them into bead embroidery where the heart silhouette can sit flat and show off the shell's full surface.

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.
