Here is the New Zealand Paua Shell, or abalone (Haliotis Iris), in its beautiful polished state. The outside of the shell releases its gorgeous colors, which change in the light. Blues, greens, pinks and purples will enchant you. The inside of the shell is not polished so you can see its natural beauty, and to provide strength.
A whole New Zealand paua shell is a great conversation piece, a natural wonder. Or you can use it to make into jewellery, use as a receptacle for your trinkets, or even use as a delicate scoop.
The paua shell measures at least 13cm x 9cm (5" x 3 1/2") and is A2 Grade,and some are up to 17cm long. It comes to you from beautiful Fiordland, New Zealand, where the finest paua shells are found. They are much bigger and stronger than cheaper polished paua shells, and the colours are more intense. And the paua shell comes in an attractive box showcasing the beauty of the Fiordland scenery, with information about the paua printed on the underside of the box.
