Abalone Mosaic Earrings — Tide Pool Morning

About this piece

These are what happens when the tide pool catches the sunrise and I catch it in my hands. Each earring features a large round mosaic disc — real abalone shell and mother-of-pearl inlaid in a checkerboard pattern that shifts between ocean blue, sea green, deep teal, and soft pink depending on the light. Every square of shell has its own swirl, its own story. Flanking each disc top and bottom are faceted peach-pink iridescent cube crystals that pick up the warmer tones in the shell and throw light like little lanterns. Silver-tone fish hook findings. Each earring hangs approximately 2.5 inches from the hook. Sold as a pair. Handmade by an Indigenous artist — each piece is unique and will never be replicated, not even close. The abalone does something different every time the light moves, so honestly, you're getting about forty earrings in one. I held these, turned them under every lamp in my house. They're ready. Are you?

Care: Keep away from water and perfume. Seed beads are durable but the thread that holds them is not invincible — treat gently.
