Cut from real abalone or paua shell, these 13x18mm rectangles bring genuine iridescent shell material into your work — no imitation finish, just the natural shimmer the shell grew itself.

The surface shifts through the full spectral range abalone is known for — greens, blues, and purples that move with the light in a way no coating can replicate.

What to make with them

The flat rectangular shape is ideal for wirewrapping as a focal pendant or setting into resin bezels, and the consistent geometry makes them easy to incorporate into structured collar necklaces or statement earrings where a natural shell element anchors bolder metalwork.

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.
