Pearls Abalone

Natural Abalone Pearl for creation?
I play around making jewelery, usually resin stuff, but I’m keen to make a reeeealy cool piece from natural abalone pearl i’ve seen. I think some cool creative things could be done with it… but i’m just after feedback.. Is the licked item a good buy. I’ve checked out the seller in a well known pearl forum and they are 100% legit – so not a scam.
he has a Pearl which has been professionally valued at nearly $3000 and he’s selling at $900 just because he has no need for it in his collection.
His item is at http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&item=300222544259
Any advice and inspirational ideas would be cool
Could be…
Your challenge marketing the final piece is that abalone pearls aren’t as well known as say Tahitians. This site also sells abalone pearls – you might check them out first. I saw their add on another site and they seem like quality.

Abalone $81.25 Abalone (from Spanish Abuln)are small to very largesized edible sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Haliotidae and the genus Haliotis. Family Haliotidae has no subfamilies. Common names for abalones also include earshells, seaears and Venussears, as well as muttonfish or muttonshells in Australia, ormer in Jersey and Guernsey, perlemoen in South Africa and pua in New Zealand.There is only the one genus in the family Haliotidae, and about four to seven subgenera. The number of species recognized worldwide is about 100.The shells of abalones have a low and open spiral structure, and are characterized by several open respiratory pores in a row near the shells outer edge. The thick inner layer of the shell is composed of nacre or motherofpearl, which in many species is highly iridescent, giving rise to a range of strong and changeable colors, which make the shells attractive to humans as decorative objects, and as a source of colorful motherofpearl.
