Black Pen Pinna shell : Pinna shell species are large saltwater clams sometimes known as pen shells. They are marine bivalve mollusks. Pen pearl is a term used for pearls from the shell species Pinna. This species is found in the waters of the Indian and Pacific Ocean and also in the Mediterranean. These shells produce both nacreous and non-nacreous pearls. The pearls often exhibit a dark grey to black body color with overtones of bright green, blue, purple, silver, and pink. We buy natural pearls directly from the divers throughout the Indo Pacific region. Origin of Pen Pinna shell : Found in the pristine tropical waters off the coast of the New Guinea. The Island of New Guinea is situated south of the equator and is the world's second largest island after Greenland. The independent State of Papua New Guinea, is a country in Oceania, occupying the eastern half of the island of New Guinea and numerous offshore islands (the western portion of the island is a part of the Indonesian provinces of Papua and West Papua). It is located in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, in a region defined since the early 19th century as Melanesia. The capital is Port Moresby. Papua New Guinea is one of the most diverse countries on Earth. When the first Europeans arrived in the 16th century, they encountered strange and dangerous looking natives, who still lived in a Stone Age environment. This remains true for several tribes even today combined with a mountain range which has a height of over 4,000 meters in some places, the humid tropical climate and the dense tropical rain forests make large areas inaccessible. On the other hand, it means that a wide spectrum of original and rare animal and plant species have been allowed to remain undisturbed. Papua New Guinea is one of the most heterogeneous nations in the world. There are hundreds of ethnic groups indigenous to Papua New Guinea, the majority being from the group known as Papuans, whose ancestors arrived in the New Guinea region tens of thousands of years ago. Many remote Papuan tribes still have only marginal contact with the outside world. The majority of the population lives in traditional societies and practice subsistence-based agriculture. The country is one of the worlds least explored, culturally and geographically, and many undiscovered species of plants and animals are thought to exist in the interior of Papua New Guinea. The country's geography is diverse and, in places, extremely rugged. A spine of mountains runs the length of the island of New Guinea, forming a populous highlands region. Dense rainforests can be found in the lowland and coastal areas. These shell carvings are handcrafted in Bali (Indonesia) by our in-house Balinese shell carvers. Paua Abalone shell : Paua shell is produced by the New Zealand Abalone (Haliotis iris), the most colorful shell. The name Paua is the name the Maori call the shell we know as Abalone from the deep waters of the South Island of New Zealand. These waters are a lot colder being so close to the Antarctic Basin. This is why the colors of Paua Abalone are more vibrant and deeper in color than any other Abalone found in the world. The lustrous iridescence is a rainbow blue, green and various shades of red. This Paua Abalone shell is an inspiration from nature’s spectrum of rainbow colors. Origin : We buy all our Paua Abalone shell material directly from New Zealand. These shell carvings are handcrafted in Bali (Indonesia) by our in-house Balinese shell carvers. Remarks : This finely carved shell will make a spectacular pendant or other jewelry.
