Abalone:
Abalone shells, known for their stunning iridescence and vibrant array of colors including blues, greens, purples, and pinks, are highly prized in jewelry making. The smooth, glossy surface and unique natural patterns of the nacre, or mother-of-pearl, layer create a shimmering, rainbow-like effect. Abalone shells are used in a variety of jewelry pieces such as pendants, necklaces, earrings, rings, bracelets, and brooches, fitting well with styles ranging from bohemian and nautical to modern. Their oceanic origins and organic beauty make abalone shell jewelry unique and eye-catching.
Fun Fact:
A fun fact about abalone shells is that they are often used by indigenous cultures worldwide for various purposes, including as decorative items, tools, and in ceremonies. For example, in Native American traditions, abalone shells are commonly used as smudge bowls to burn sage, due to their heat-resistant properties and symbolic connection to water, one of the four elements used in these rituals.
