PAUA KETE BAGS

Celebrate New Zealand’s coastal beauty with a polished pāua gift – available in two export-friendly formats, each featuring the brilliant iridescence of sustainably sourced pāua shell. Known as the most colourful abalone shell in the world, every piece is naturally unique, shaped by ocean waves and rich in meaning. Pāua symbolises purity, prosperity, and connection to the sea.

Both options come with a traditional woven kete bag and a pāua story label, making them perfect for gifting or taking overseas.
