Product Description:
These elegant seed pearls were salvaged from a damaged 1950's Japanese clutch purse. Each pearl is a delicate, shimmering ivory hue, and small variations occur. As these pearls are quite old, some imperfections might be present in the nacre (the calcium layer coating the "seed" bead that was implanted in the mollusk during culturing), which lends the pearls a gorgeous uniqueness. You won't see such richness in new cultured pearls. These pearls are PERFECT for use in weddings or bridal dresses and jewelry, or for manifesting your own inspirations.Site:
