Straight From Nature
Pearls are a covetable, iridescent, natural wonder and they are also incredibly elegant.
Though classified as a gemstone, pearls are totally unique due to the fact that they are the only gem material formed and found within a living creature. Unlike gemstones from the Earth, pearls require no cutting or polishing before use, and are simply stunning the way they naturally form
Pearls are formed by shelled molluscs; mainly bi-valved oysters and mussels?
Cultured freshwater pearls are pearls that are farmed and created using freshwater mussels.
Akoya, Tahitian and South Sea pearls are all saltwater pearls grown within saltwater pearl oysters.
Both freshwater and saltwater pearls are grow inside the mollusc in exactly the same way. A small piece of mantle tissue or a round shell bead is implanted into the mollusc. Pearls form when nacre, (mother-of-pearl), which is mostly aragonite, (calcium carbonate), builds up around the irritant.
They have been revered since antiquity. Their romantic connotations can be traced all the way back to the ancient Greeks, who associated pearls with love and harmony.
