Spiny Oyster:
Spiny Oyster is a vibrant shell material commonly found in orange, red, and purple hues, with rare yellow variations. The colors are influenced by the mollusks' diet and the water's depth and temperature. It can be distinguished from coral by the white variations in its shell. Predominantly sourced from the Sea of Cortez (Gulf of California), Spiny Oyster is used extensively in Native American jewelry. Read More
Coral
While often mistaken for a gemstone, coral is actually composed of the skeletal remains of tiny marine creatures known as coral polyps. Among the various shades of coral, the bold red hue of blood coral stands out for its striking beauty. This deep red color carries deep significance for many Native American cultures, often representing a connection to the ocean, which is viewed as the Earth’s lifeblood in numerous legends. Read More
