Treasure a piece of Aotearoa’s coastline with this polished Pāua Gem, cut from a sustainably hand-harvested New Zealand pāua shell. Known as the most colourful abalone in the world, each shell is naturally ocean-worn and completely unique – shaped by the waves and rich with iridescent blues, greens, and purples.

Presented on a New Zealand-made box measuring 68mm x 58mm x 40mm (to top of gem), this gem is a stunning keepsake or export-friendly gift that carries the essence of New Zealand’s coastal beauty.

Pāua symbolises purity and prosperity, making this a meaningful token for yourself or someone special.

Made in New Zealand.

At Ocean Shell Studio, each piece is thoughtfully designed and predominantly handcrafted in Aotearoa using sustainably sourced pāua shell and mother of pearl. We take pride in our workmanship, blending natural beauty with quality materials to create distinctive New Zealand-made products. While the majority of our range is crafted in-house, we occasionally source select components to complement our offering - always with the same commitment to care, quality, and consistency.
