Lovely Paua Bracelet. Silver links and beautiful colours from the Paua shell.
I think this is called "Abolone" in the US
Here in New Zealand it is "Paua" pronounced Pawah, with a striking blue, green, and purple iridescence.
It is very popular and often made into jewellery amongst many other souvenir items.
Yes, I know this as abalone, we used to have the shells around the house as ashtrays, and I have rings set with abalone.
Thanks katherinescollections. It does make pretty jewellery.
