Pink Mussel Pieces
Pink mussel pieces have a softer, more delicate beauty than pāua, with pearly pinks, warm natural tones and a gentle shimmer that makes them lovely to work with.
Our pink mussel pieces come from the Mississippi, a material with a rather fascinating story. Shell like this has long been used in pearl making, where small polished pieces can become the tiny centre placed inside an oyster to help a cultured pearl begin to form.
This collection is for jewellers, artists, makers, restorers and creative people looking for shell pieces with colour, texture and a little something different. Each piece has its own natural markings, so no two are quite the same.
Whether you are creating jewellery, adding detail to craftwork, repairing something special, or choosing a piece because the colour caught your eye, take your time and have a browse.
Pink mussel has a quiet beauty - softer than pāua, but very special in its own way.
