Located at the top of the South Island in New Zealand. We gain our shell supplies from the entire Paua producing areas of New Zealand. These shells are transported to our shell processing factory where skilled graders sort the raw shell into the various shell grades. Some of the product is then used to produce an extensive collection of paua jewellery and souvenirs. Paua shell is used extensively in the jewellery and craft industries, inlayed into wood crafts, watch faces, shaped into buttons and used for many decorative items. The shells are also popular as whole polished shells. We export and supply from 25 kilograms to orders of many tonnes.
