SOUL SHELL - PREMIUM NATURAL SHELL WITH STAND
SKU: NNPWS
The Soul Shell is a purposeful and meaningful piece, featuring a premium natural New Zealand pāua (abalone) shell presented on a handcrafted wooden stand - ideal for smudging rituals, spiritual cleansing, or simply grounding your space in natural beauty.
Traditionally used to hold sage, herbs, or incense, the pāua shell represents the element of water and is believed to calm emotional tension and restore balance. In Māori and spiritual traditions, pāua symbolises tranquillity, protection, abundance, fertility, and the cycle of life.
Each shell is sustainably sourced and unique, with iridescent ocean hues and natural markings shaped by time and tide.
- Natural Shell: Features an unpolished / organic pāua shell paired with a handcrafted stand made from rich red Mangifera Indica (mango wood/red toned wood).
- Polished Shell: Features a fully polished pāua shell presented on a pale-toned Liriodendron Tulipifera (tulip wood / light toned wood) stand.
Ideal For: Smudging, spiritual cleansing, and wellbeing rituals
Includes: 1 genuine pāua shell + wooden display stand
