Abalone
Description: Abalone is a type of marine mollusk known for its beautiful, iridescent inner shell, often referred to as mother of pearl. The outer shell of abalone is usually rough and dull, but the inside reveals stunning swirls of blue, green, pink, and purple. These shells are often used in jewelry, decorative items, and inlays for musical instruments due to their vibrant and colorful appearance.
Fun Fact: Abalone shells have been used for centuries by coastal cultures for both practical and decorative purposes. In many traditions, abalone is believed to enhance feelings of peace, compassion, and love. It is also used in smudging rituals to hold burning sage, symbolizing a connection to the ocean and its healing properties.
