New Zealand paua or rainbow abalone have the most beautiful color in the world. This variant of mother of pearl is called paua by the Maori, the indigenous people of New Zealand. They are used for burning loose white sage and stains.
Smudging is an ancient Native American practice in which bundles of herbs and/or fragrant woods, such as white sage and palo santo, are bound together in the abalone shell. This, as part of a ritual ceremony or to energetically cleanse a house or other space. The natural holes in the shell provide the air supply.
Note: This is a natural product, variations in size and color are normal, as are 'imperfections' around the edges and surface. Any algae deposits can be brushed off under running water.
