How to choose a mother-of-pearl, shell, or freshwater pearl pendant?
Pendants made from natural materials are appealing due to their subtle reflections and unique character. Unlike industrially manufactured pendants, each piece features natural variations in color, thickness, shape, or texture.
Mother-of-pearl is made from the inner lining of certain shells. It offers iridescent reflections that are especially appreciated in delicate and luminous jewelry. Natural shells, on the other hand, bring a more bohemian or summery style. Freshwater pearls
come from pearl farming and often have slightly irregular shapes called "baroque." These features are sought after because they guarantee the pearl's authenticity. When choosing your pendant, check the attachment system used. Some models have an integrated bail, while others require adding a ring or a suitable bail. The relatively light weight of these pendants generally allows them to be paired with fine chains made of stainless steel, 925 silver, or Gold Filled. To complete your creations, also discover our
