Radiance of the Ocean: Pearl Jewelry Collection

These wild pearls are called natural pearls. The majority of pearls that are sold from the market are cultured or farmed pearls. They are made through pearl oysters and freshwater mussels. Imitation pearls are also sold in the market as inexpensive jewelry. Pearls have also been used to make clothing more beautiful, but they are primarily used only in jewelry. They have also been used in paint formulations, cosmetics, and medicines. It does not matter whether we are talking about wild or cultured pearls; all gem-quality pearl Jewelry are always iridescent and nacreous, like the interior of the shell in which they are made. Almost all species of shelled mollusks can produce pearls of lesser shine or lesser spherical shape. This happens when an irritating microscopic object is trapped within the mantle folds of mollusks.
