One of a kind Abalone designs.
These designs cannot be duplicated because of the rarity of the abalone shell and in some cases the beads used in the design. They are unique in the world.
Our collection was discovered by The Smithsonian Institution and featured at the Smithsonian American Art Museum Renwick Gallery in Washington, D.C.
