Spiny oysters are beautiful organisms who live on coral reefs. Their shells are vibrant and stunning and are valued in jewelry making businesses for their aesthetic appeal.

The range of oyster shell  colors includes orange, red, purple, pink and brown. The turquoise color in the earrings is natural Peruvian turquoise.

To preserve the population of oysters regulations apply to the number of harvested shells, their size and only in designated harvesting areas.

The limited availability of the shells adds to their value.

Collecting shells is challenging - it requires diving and using specialty equipment to disattach the oysters from the point of their   seat on the coral reefs.

In ancient South American cultures Spiny oyster shells were more valuable than gold or silver.  Only Shamans and the elders were allowed to wear or use them.
