Welcome to Girlpaua
PAUA SHELL JEWELLERY & GIFTS
If you are looking for unique & exquisite jewellery then you have come to the right place! Known as the brightest of all abalone shells, the natural iridescent & radiant hues of the New Zealand Paua Shell make it stand out. Highly versatile by nature, no two pieces of paua shell will be the same and as each shell has a multitude of colours (pinks, blues, greens and golds to name a few) you can rest assured your jewellery will match most things in your wardrobe!
We also use NZ Black Mother of Pearl, Pink Mother of Pearl & Pink Mussel Shell, plus freshwater pearls and Austrian Swarovski Crystals to enhance the beautiful iridescence of the natural shells. You can be sure your unique jewellery will attract attention whatever the occasion!
90% of Girlpaua's Paua Shell Jewellery is designed and handcrafted in Scotland by Mhairi, who lives in Glasgow with her partner ... who is of course from New Zealand! Scotland & New Zealand are very closely linked and, according to statistics, of the population that are identified as NZ Europeans about 2.6 million people (two thirds) are the descendants of the first Scots to settle in Dunedin in the South Island, NZ back in 1848!
Just like the paua shell itself, Girlpaua Jewellery prides itself on being unique. You can create the look you want just by changing a few component parts - its your jewellery, you decide! The Girlpaua Jewellery range includes necklaces, bracelets, earrings, watches, rings, brooches, photo frames and more, plus we make beautiful handcrafted cards & earring cards to compliment your jewellery.
