💎 Premium Organic Materials & Global Sourcing
• Bronze Mother-of-Pearl (Pteria penguin): Sourced directly from sustainable aquaculture pearl farms off the coast of Sumbawa Island, Indonesia. Also known as the Black-Winged Oyster, this tropical species produces an exceptionally fine-textured, highly lustrous nacre. The shell transitions from a brilliant silvery tone beneath the muscle scar to a rich, warm mauve and golden bronze banding near the outer rim, delivering a rare and penetrating depth of brilliance.
• New Zealand Paua Abalone Shell (Haliotis iris): Sourced from the pristine, icy depths off the South Island of New Zealand. Because these marine gastropods live in ultra-cold waters near the Antarctic Basin, their shells develop an unparalleled density and thickness of nacre. This results in the deepest, most intensely vibrant rainbow iridescence found in any abalone species worldwide.
• 100% Natural Color Palette: Free from artificial surface paints, toxic chemical dyes, or color injections. The kaleidoscopic brilliance of the leaf is entirely provided by nature, hand-polished to a smooth, lustrous, porcelain-like gloss.
🔨 Traditional Balinese Craftsmanship
• Handcrafted One by One: This botanical treasure is meticulously sculpted, detailed, and polished using multi-generational heritage techniques by our in-house Balinese master shell carvers.
• A Unique Masterpiece: We completely bypass machine mass production and computerized factory cutters. Because every leaf is fashioned by hand out of separate, organic canvases, subtle variations in exact dimensions, weight, and light-reflecting color patterns will occur—making your carving a true, one-of-a-kind work of wearable art.
• Earth-Conscious Studio: Our workshop operates under a strict zero-waste philosophy. All our raw materials are fully biodegradable, and any minor workshop scraps from the carving tables are gently composted directly into our island studio gardens to enrich the soil.
📿 Design Details & Integration
• Perforation: Features a clean, pre-drilled 1.20 mm hole at the top part of the carving, making it incredibly easy to thread with a delicate jump ring, fine wire wrap, or structural pin.
• Creative Versatility: This lightweight, dual-sided carving is exceptionally well-suited for high-end statement pendants, talismanic necklaces, accent charms, or centerpiece elements in bohemian and nature-focused design collections.

Bronze Mother-of-Pearl

Penguin Winged Oyster – Pteria Penguin
Pteria is a genus of winged oyster closely related to Pinctata that also produces commercial quantities of pearls. Winged oysters are edible but unpalatable and seldom produce precious pearls.
It is a tropical species, with pearly interiors and long, wing-like projections of the hinge, and has fragile shells.
Winged oysters are found naturally on rocks and coral near channels and capes where the current runs fast and they attach themselves to the ocean bottom and to wharf pilings. Pteria Penguin is a major source of Mabe Pearl production.
The Black Winged Oyster, Pteria Penguin that grows up to 20-30 cm in diameter is also called “the penguin wing oyster” from its shape like a wing. They commonly display a silver color under the oyster muscle with a rich mauve, gold banding towards the black/brown outer lip.
The Black Winged Oyster produces brilliant nacre with a rainbow-like spectrum of hues and possesses a uniquely penetrating brilliance, with hues ranging from light pink through deep "rainbow".
Sometimes the pearls have gold or other hues of high rarity. This rich variety of lustrous hues combines with nacreous layers of a rarely seen fineness of texture to give this pearl. The Black Winged Pearl Oyster can be found in the east to the western tropical Pacific and from the southern islands of Japan in the north to the southern waters of Australia and Indonesia.
Paua Abalone shell
:
Paua shell is produced by the New Zealand Abalone (Haliotis iris), the most colorful shell.
The name Paua is the name the Maori call the shell we know as Abalone from the deep waters of the South Island of New Zealand.
These waters are a lot colder being so close to the Antarctic Basin. This is why the colors of Paua Abalone are more vibrant and deeper in color than any other Abalone found in the world.
The lustrous iridescence is a rainbow blue, green and various shades of red.
This Paua Abalone shell is an inspiration from nature’s spectrum of rainbow colors.
