A MIRACLE OF NATURE

How do pearls happen? Cultured pearls are produced on farms in a sustainable process. The pearls are formed when humans insert a tiny piece of mantle tissue, or a small bead of shell into a mollusk. In response, the mantle tissue of the mollusk secretes nacre. The nacre builds up in layers. It surrounds the irritant and eventually forms a pearl. Voila'... the miraculous growth of a luxurious gem. Pearls are the only gem which is grown inside a living organism, and they do not have to be cut or polished to reveal their natural sublimity and beauty. They are truly a miracle of nature.

PEARLS BY COLOR

Pearls are not just white. The color of pearls varies depending on the type of mollusk that produced them. You will find white pearls, black pearls, naturally lavender pearls, naturally peach/pink pearls, golden pearls, as well as a variety of tones of green, silver and pewter. You'll find lovely combinations of these colors in multi-colored strands.

The luster also varies greatly – affecting the appearance, quality, and unfortunately, the price! As well as their main body color, many pearls show an overtone of a secondary color shimmering over their surface. Some pearls also have the rainbow effect or "orient" creating a beguiling variety of colors dancing over the surface.
