Dancer in the Light, Handcrafted Natural Paua Shell
Jewelry Set with a Paua Shell Pendant
Paua is the Maori name given to three species of large edible sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks which belong to the family Haliotidae, known in the United States and Australia as abalone, and in the United Kingdom as ormer shells. Paua are commonly found in shallow coastal waters along rocky shorelines. The shell of the Paua is oval, and the exterior is often covered with grayish incrustations. In contrast, the interior layer of shell (called the nacre) of a Paua is an iridescent swirl of intense green, blue, purple, and sometimes pink colors. Highly polished New Zealand Paua shells are extremely popular as jewelry with their striking blue, green, and purple iridescence.
