This is a striking natural abalone pearl with bold color, baroque form, and exceptional iridescence. The shape is reminiscent of a wide teardrop or curved bean, with soft, organic curves.
The surface displays intense metallic luster with shifting colors that include electric blue, teal green, bronze, violet, and flashes of rose and magenta depending on the light angle. The pearl has high luster, creating a mirror-like glow across the surface.
Natural growth features are visible near one end adding to its character and its wild origin. This pearl is undrilled and ideal for a one-of-a-kind pendant, brooch, or a serious natural pearl collection.

LEARN MORE:
Abalone pearls form naturally within marine gastropods that inhabit coastal rocky waters. Though abalone shells are commonly used for their colorful interior, the pearls themselves are exceptionally rare—occurring in only about 1 in every 2,000 abalone harvested.
These pearls are typically baroque in shape and display iridescent color combinations that shift in the light. Shark tooth–shaped pearls with high-intensity metallic tones like this are sought after for both their aesthetic boldness and natural rarity.
