8x10mm Natural Purple Spiny Oyster Shell Oval Cabochons 8x10mm
Hard to find in this rich shade of purple, these Purple Spiny Oyster Cabs create a balanced color harmony with Turquoise. These 8x10mm cabs have beautiful undulations of color with subtle flashes of warm orange to red tones blending with the purple. Harvested from the Sea of Cortez for food and for the shells, they are a sustainable addition to jewelry and have been used by Native peoples for centuries. These have been cut to maximize the richest part of the shell. They're all natural, so there will be some natural texture on the surface barely visible without magnification. Spiny is a mainstay of southwest jewelry, supplying the bold color and contrast to Turquoise. Since they are in high demand and difficult to harvest in the ocean depths, availability can be limited in this size. Take this opportunity to add Purple Spiny Oyster Cabs and a beautiful pop of color to your next work of art.
