Pearls

A pearl is formed when a bit of sand or other irritant gets inside the shell of a mollusk, such as an oyster. The mollusk secretes calcium carbonate to surround the irritant, which accumulates in layers of aragonite and conchiolin. This layered formation causes the refraction of light that gives pearls their distinctive appearance. Colors vary with the type of mollusk, and varying nutrients in the water. We offer various style, shapes, sizes, and colors of Pearls, from small Button pearls to awesome white Coin pearls!
