Abalone Shell
 The
colours of the ocean are in an abalone shell, and is soft to
the touch from repeated tumbles in the sand and water. It also
has ripples on it which look like the ripples made by waves
on sand.
Shells are part of a living ecosystem, made up from calcium
carbonate and grow in the ocean. Many types of shell have been
used instead of gemstones for centuries. Popular types of shell
include pearl, abalone and paua. Abalone shell has been used
for centuries in jewellery and carvings. In the Apache tradition
a disc of abalone shell is worn on the forehead of Apache girls,
on the morning of their initiation into womanhood.
