Thank you for viewing. This is a Paua shell brooch from Ariki, New Zealand. The brooch has a beautiful color gradation of the shell and can be used for formal occasions. There are no noticeable scratches on the surface of the brooch, but there is rust on the back. There is also some dirt on the cushion. Please check the photos. The brooch will be shipped without the box it came in. If you would like the box, it will be an additional 400 yen.
