How do I clean my Wild Jewels jewelry?

Paua shell, Mother Of Pearl and sterling silver setting may be cleaned with a soft silver polishing cloth by gently rubbing the silver. The shell may be washed in lukewarm water with a soft soap and gently patted dry with a cloth.

Our sterling silver (925) chains may be gently cleaned either using a soft silver polishing cloth or a recommended brand of sterling silver liquid cleaner (check with your local jeweler for a recommended brand). Do not use any liquid jewelry cleaner on the paua, Mother of Pearl or freshwater pearls.

How do I store my Wild Jewels jewelry?

We recommend storing your jewelry when not in use in a sealed cloth bag or the gift box in which it comes in.

Is the Paua resource environmentally sustainable?

In New Zealand there are very strict laws to ensure that this valuable resource is sustainable for generations to come. Paua is harvested commercially by a quota system to ensure there is no impact on the population. It must be over five inches and can only be collected by free diving.

What is Paua?

New Zealand paua is a member of the Abalone family and is unique to the pristine coastal waters of New Zealand. Paua has the most intense color of all the Abalone family – a stunning array of blues, turquoise, greens and purples. Wild Jewels hand selects their paua shell for the most beautiful color and natural luminosity. This is done by hand sorting half a tonne of premium shell from four tonnes of shell. Due to the hand selection process of the shell each piece of Wild Jewels is stunningly beautiful making your piece unique.

What materials are used in your jewelry?

Wild Jewels uses New Zealand Paua shell, Mother of Pearl shell, sterling silver, freshwater pearls and semi-precious gemstones.

Why is each piece of Wild Jewels unique?

Paua is a natural material and every piece is different in pattern, texture and color.  Color variations range from blue, turquoise, greens and purple.  The color will often change depending on how light is refracted against the shell.  By moving it from side to side the color may go through several different spectrums of light.  All our shell has a natural luminosity.

The back (or outside) of the shell is organic in appearance and texture.

Please note that we make every effort to detail and accurately describe our products.  The photo on the website will differ slightly from the piece you receive, as each item is unique, due to the natural beauty of the materials we use.
