​Abalone Jewelry - this lovely line of anthropologically-themed jewelry is designed and manufactured by a small private company; we're happy to have found them. The pendants and bracelets are made from abalone shell infused with resin, and the designs are based on Polynesian and Pacific Northwest tribal themes. Some of the pendants have designs on both sides, and some have mother-of-pearl on one side, both of which give you two necklaces for the price of one. The less expensive pieces are one sided - the back is plain white, though you can see the shadows of the shell.
