Product description
Made from Paua shell from New Zealand, sustainably sourced as a by-product from the fishing. The jewellery is tested against European regulations and the plated, or stainless steel components are hypo-allergenic. The earring findings are silver.
Ancient Maori people name the Paua shell as ‘The gift of the God of the sea’ . It is often referred to as the sea opal due to its striking blues, greens and fiery flashes and the iridescent patterns that change as they catch the light.
