Cut from real abalone or paua shell, these 15x20mm tear drop beads arrive as a full strand — each one carrying the shell's natural iridescence in a shape that's made for focal work.

The curved tear drop face catches light across the shell's organic layering, shifting through the greens, blues, and purples that abalone and paua are known for.

What to make with them

String them as a graduated focal strand in a statement necklace, or wire-wrap individual drops as earring pendants where the tear drop silhouette can swing freely and show off the full face of the shell.

Natural materials vary in color, pattern, and size. The beads you receive may differ slightly from the product photos — this is a characteristic of natural materials, not a defect.
