| Does anyone on the forum know where I might be able to obtain about half-a-dozen fairly large shells from Pinctada margaritifera, the black-lip pearl mullosc? I need them for inlay work. Also, a colleague of mine is looking for a source of large black-lip shells for collector knife handles. Marc http://flyrodjewelry.com/home.html        |

| I saw a lot of them at the Gem Mall in Tucson, but I can't remember the vendor's name. It was hard to find a P. margaratifera shell online. Here is one in NZ http://southernpaua.co.nz/shop/index...0th8ulf0h393v5 I also found a company that makes tiles out of shell - who knew? http://www.shelltile.com/
