History: While they may look unexciting on the outside, abalone shells contain a thick inner layer of iridescent mother-of-pearl that has long driven humans to collect them and turn them into home decor and jewelry. Besides being mesmerizingly colorful, their shells are also believed to beĀ 3,000 times strongerĀ than a single crystal of calcium carbonate, the mineral of which they're made.
