How to choose mother-of-pearl, shell, or sea bamboo beads?
Mother-of-pearl and shell beads have always attracted jewelry designers thanks to their natural reflections and lightness. Each piece features unique shades, adding character and authenticity to the creations.
The mother-of-pearl comes from the inner layer of certain shells. Its iridescent shine varies depending on the species used, the thickness of the material, and its orientation during cutting. It is especially appreciated for elegant and luminous jewelry.
Natural shells allow the creation of jewelry inspired by the marine world and bohemian trends. They are often paired with cords, gold chains, or natural beads to achieve a highly sought-after summer style.
Sea bamboo is not a true coral. It is usually a natural material that has been reconstituted and dyed to obtain bright and uniform colors. It is an excellent decorative alternative that allows you to enjoy the aesthetics of coral while limiting the use of protected species.
These materials pair perfectly with gold findings, natural stones, freshwater pearls, and fine chains to create refined and easy-to-wear jewelry.
