This is a beautiful pearl shell with an iridescent shine. It can be used as a tray for burning sage or for displaying small items such as bracelets. When smudging, the shell may be damaged, so it is recommended to place ash or something similar between the sage and the shell for safety. Material: White Hyriopsis schlegelii shell Size: Approximately 100 x 160mm Depth: 25mm I have been using it for about six months to hold accessories. It is in beautiful condition. Thank you for looking.
