The outside looks plain and rocky. Flip it over and it's a swirl of blue, green, pink and silver.
Abalone are sea snails, and this is the shell they live in. The inside is lined with nacre, the same shimmery material as mother of pearl, and the colours shift as you tilt it. Along one edge you'll see a row of little holes the snail used for breathing.
People have used abalone shells as small bowls for a very long time, especially for burning sage, palo santo or herbs. It's also simply beautiful on a shelf. Folks who like ocean things tend to pick it up and not put it down.
