This beautiful necklace comprises a large pendant set with a gorgeous well figured Paua Shell on a long fancy link chain all in sterling silver. 

The pendant is well made with a cut out design around the well set shell and a strong sturdy bale. The bale is stamped 925 for sterling silver.

While Abalone grows across the globe, the unique conditions of the New Zealand coastline give the Paua Shell a vibrant glow that is simply unmatched. The shell is long treasured by the Maori for its beauty and spirit.

The pendant has a large bale through which a fancy flat link chain is threaded. The chain secures with a lobster clasp.

The chain is stamped Italy 925 for sterling silver.

The pendant is 55mm (including the bale) x 28mm. The chain is 500mm long and just under 4mm wide.  It weighs 18gms.
