Type of shell |
: |
Pinna Pen shell – Atrina inflata are large saltwater clams sometimes known as pen shells. They are marine bivalve mollusks.
Pen pearl is a term used for pearls from the shell species Pinna. This species is found in the waters of the Indian and Pacific Ocean and also in the Mediterranean. These shells produce both nacreous and non-nacreous pearls. The pearls often exhibit a dark grey to black body color with overtones of bright green, blue, purple, silver, and pink.
We buy natural pearls directly from the divers throughout the Indo Pacific region.
Found in the pristine tropical waters off the coast of the New Guinea.
