Paua Shell - Natural

Pāua Shell - Natural

Our New Zealand pāua shell - otherwise known as an 80's ashtray (NZ abalone) has been gently cleaned and finished with a smooth edge, offering a raw yet refined glimpse of Aotearoa’s coastal beauty. Each shell is carefully selected for its vibrant colour, iridescent sheen, and natural shape, with the ocean-worn lime layer lightly cleaned but intentionally left intact to preserve its authentic character.

This natural finish makes it ideal for giftware, smudging, burning incense, educational displays, coastal-themed décor, or collectors seeking an authentic piece of New Zealand marine life with a natural presentation.

Finish: Natural – gently cleaned with smooth edge, no coating

Sizes 120–150mm (5"–6")
