Abalone Shell Bowl For Smudging

THREADED ABALONE: Derived from the mollusk called haliotis assimilis, threaded abalone has an arched shell with many ridges. The dynamic shell is often used as the outlay for ornaments and interior décor. Threaded abalone is most prominently found on Laguna beach.

Size ranges from 3”-4”.

Abalone shells are used in smudging rituals, not only because they are practical in that they catch the hot cinders that fall away from the smudging stick after it has burnt, but also because they are a beautiful gift straight from the ocean. Abalone is believed to induce feelings of love, compassion and peace. The rainbows in these shells produce happiness and wonder. How has our earth done it again?
