Pearl
Hand-Crafted & Locally Sourced
Natural pearls form under a set of accidental conditions when a microscopic intruder or parasite enters a bivalve mollusk and settles inside the shell. The mollusk, irritated by the intruder, forms a pearl over time. The process is very much similar to our human immune response to a foreign body.
For centuries, pearls have been worn as a symbol of beauty, purity, and grace – paradoxically formed from the unnatural, unwanted and inconvenient.
