Haliotis iris, or pāua, is a species of abalone exclusively found in New Zealand. They are prized for their bright turquoise shells with an iridescent rainbow sheen. The white outer layer of the pāua shell is sanded off, and the turquoise is polished to make stunning jewelry unique to New Zealand.
 
These can be used to store your crystals, used during cleansing a sage burning or just as a wonderful mothe rof pearl gemstone shell.
