What is abalone shell?

Abalone is the inner layer of a sea snail shell, known for its rainbow shimmer of blue, green and purple. Because it is natural shell, the color pattern varies a little from pair to pair.

Are these earrings nickel free?

The maker lists them as lead, nickel and cadmium free, with brass fish hook ear wires. That makes them a better choice than many costume earrings for people who react to nickel, though anyone with a strong metal allergy should check with their doctor.
