6 New Ways to Clutch Your Pearls

6 New Ways to Clutch Your Pearls

Jun 1st 2023

June babies are fortunate enough to have three beautiful birthstones from which to choose: the pearl, moonstone, and alexandrite. For our monthly birthstone series, we’re focusing on the classic pearl. Many know that pearls are a naturally occurring gem, harvested from mollusks that form the birthstone in response to irritants that enter their shell. Unlike gemstones, which must be cut and polished, the pearl is complete when harvested, shiny and smooth. In its creation, nature teaches us that something everlastingly beautiful can be achieved by overcoming temporary challenges.

You’ll be happy to know that animals are usually unharmed by pearl harvesting. In fact, the older the mollusk, the better the pearl. So, there are many reasons to keep these underwater friends happy and healthy.

What Really is Mother-of-Pearl?

Mother-of-pearl is made from nacre, the same material mollusks use to form gorgeous pearls. The mollusk is quite pragmatic. It protects its shell from irritation by lining the entire interior with nacre, which is incredibly resilient and, as it turns out, iridescent. This beautiful lining is where we get mother-of-pearl.

From the Wild to the Wearable

Likely, you have at least one string of pearls in your collection, maybe even more. Some of us inherited pearl-decorated necklaces and earrings from our mothers and grandmothers. We string them around our necks, once or twice, to remove any doubt that the look we’re going for is vintage, classic. But pearls aren’t just for little black dresses and flapper frocks. Today, the gem is making a comeback as a bold new way to add a touch of tradition to the modern silhouette.
