This is a beautiful, iridescent brooch made with abalone shell (paua shell/awabi shell). It changes color and appearance depending on the angle of light, giving it an aurora-like shine. My grandfather bought it on a trip, and it has been carefully stored for a long time with little use. --- 【What is Abalone Shell?】 It has a mother-of-pearl layer on the inside of the abalone shell, which gives off a natural, iridescent luster. "Paua shell" from New Zealand, in particular, has rich colors and is deeply rooted in Maori culture. --- 【Size】 Approximately 5 x 4 x 1.5 cm (including pin) 【Condition】 There are no noticeable scratches or stains, but there may be minor scratches due to long-term storage. For those who understand vintage items. We also have other slightly nostalgic accessories, so please take a look if you'd like♪ #Tea’s Accessories Shop is here
