Puiaki Originals

Pāua Collection

X Wing

As a Star Wars ship flown by rebel heroes it is only appropriate that the front cabin and nose cone of the space craft should include the pāua shell.

The most famous pilot being that of Luke Skywalker, who many times relied on the power of 'The Force' to guide his flying and deadly accurate shooting skills.

If there was ever a natural material that extols the virtues of 'The Force' it would have to be the pāua shell with it's depth, intricacy, and mystery. The longer you look at the pāua shell the more you get sucked in to it's detailed beauty and special natural influence.

If Luke Skywalker had a customised dashboard inside his X Wing it would surely have been inlayed with pāua shell to inspire his mind and bring peace and balance to his flying.
