Abalone, native to the world’s oceans from to Australia, South Africa, to the coast line of California. Abalone is known for its iridescent coloration, variety of shapes and sizes. All the abalone used by SEFdesigns, comes from the shores of Australia, and is hand cut and harvested by one local man. The abalone meat is also harvested (safe for human consumption), not a piece of the Abalone goes to waste.
