Paua Shell
– Abalone, our Paua shell is rich and deep in iridescent colours unique to New Zealand. Found all around the rocky shoreline coast but grows best in southern waters. Paua shell has been traditionally used by Maori to illuminate the eyes & features of carvings and artwork. While Paua sits within the abalone family, which is found in other parts of the world, namely, South America, Australia, Western North America, and Japan, our Paua's hidden, bright multi-coloured interior shell is only found in New Zealand.
Mother of pearl
– The iridescent inside lining of a mollusc shell, commonly found in oysters, freshwater mussels, and abalone (paua).It is strong, resilient, and very iridescent.This multicoloured iridescence is caused by the way the light reflects on the layers of the shell. A protection shell/stone that brings the gentle healing power of the sea to you.As a stress relieving stone, it brings relaxation and soothing to its wearer and the ability to calm emotion.Mother of Pearl also stimulates intuition, imagination, sensitivity, and adaptability.
