    pieces of
    ~
    Natural Iridescent South Africa Abalone Pieces
    ~
    measuring from approximately half an inch (1/2") to approximately three-quarters of an inch (3/4").  Other sizes are available in separate listings in my eBay store, as follows:
    Medium:
    Approximately 3/4" to approximately 1.25"
    Large:
    Approximately 1.25" to approximately 1.75"
    Extra-Large:
    Approximately 1.75" to approximately 2"
    The contents of three sample packets are shown in the photos, which show each of the pieces of these Abalone shells are different shapes and sizes ~ no two of the Abalone shell pieces are alike.  Three photos show a mix of the interior versus the exterior of the shell pieces, and three photos show only the glossy interior of the pieces in each of those sample packets.  The surface of the exterior of the pieces have a matte rippled/crinkle effect, and the interior of the Abalone shell pieces have the characteristic glossy iridescent surface.  Either side can be used for your artwork!  These are ideal for creating striking mosaic backgrounds for shell pictures, frames, and wreaths; or, with the right equipment, you can slice the pieces to whatever shapes and sizes you require for creating jewelry, for use as petals for seashell blossoms, and for creating special accents in Sailor's Valentines!  As these are pieces of natural seashells, they retain the natural gentle curve of the shells from which they were harvested ~ rarely do any pieces lay completely flat.  These Abalone shell pieces are perfect for creating Mother-of-Pearl jewelry, whether the pieces are used as-is or whether you cut them into smaller pieces for your artwork.  You can let your imagination go wild with crafting ideas for these beautiful pieces of natural South African Abalone sea shells in all your shell art projects and designs!

    INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING ONLY TO CANADA
    ***
    Due to the US post office inability to track shipments beyond the US border (Canada is the only exception currently), and especially due to the fact eBay holds its Sellers financially responsible for international shipments proven to have left the US but not delivered by international customs or post offices, I offer my sincere apologies for no longer being able to sell to international locations (other than Canada).
    The financial risk to me has proven to be too great.
    Please feel welcome to contact me with any questions.
