3" Bulk Polished Donkey Ear Abalone Shells – 1 lb
Polished Haliotis asinina Shells with Natural Mother-of-Pearl Interiors
$35.00
These 3-inch polished Donkey Ear Abalone Shells (Haliotis asinina) are distinguished by their long, narrow, ear-shaped profiles, gently curved surfaces, and a row of natural respiratory holes along one side. The interior consists of iridescent mother-of-pearl (nacre), while the exterior retains the characteristic shape and markings of this abalone species.
Available in 1 lb bulk lots, these whole abalone shells can be used for seashell crafts, coastal decorations, shell collections, and mixed-shell assortments. They can also serve as raw material for jewelry making, shell cutting, and mother-of-pearl inlay projects that require further processing.
Shell length is approximately 3 inches. Each lot is sold by weight rather than a fixed shell count. Natural variations in shape, curvature, color, thickness, and surface details should be expected.

Every seashell is a gift from the ocean, and I pack each one with the care it deserves, ensuring its safe journey to you.
Preparation Time: I will carefully wrap your seashells in recycled paper and twine within 1-3 business days, making it feel like a personal gift from the sea.
Shipping Method: I use reliable standard shipping and will provide you with a tracking number, so you can follow your shell’s journey.
International Orders: For shells traveling across oceans, please allow a little extra time. Sometimes customs checks can extend their journey.
The ocean never creates two identical shells, making the one you receive truly one-of-a-kind.
Damaged in Transit: If your shell is damaged during its journey, please contact me within 24 hours of receipt with a photo. I will immediately send a replacement or issue a full refund.
Not as Described: I do my best to represent each shell accurately through photos and descriptions. If you feel your shell is significantly different from what was described, please contact me within 7 days, and we will find a thoughtful solution.
A Note on “Change of Mind”: As each shell is a natural, unique item, I cannot accept returns or exchanges due to a “change of mind.” Please review the photos and dimensions carefully to ensure it’s the perfect “ocean companion” for you.
We are deeply committed to sustainable and ethical practices. All our shells are sourced responsibly—never from live-shelled creatures. We support marine conservation efforts and maintain transparency about our sourcing practices.
Abalone shells are lined with nacre (mother-of-pearl), a material so strong and flexible that it resists cracking better than many synthetic materials.
The row of holes along the shell allows the abalone to breathe and release waste, while also helping it cling tightly to rocks in powerful waves.
