Mother of Pearl Stretch Anklet
$22.00
Mother of Pearl is the strong iridescent layer of nacre that the mollusk lays down to keep the inner area of the shell where he lives as smooth as possible. Nacre is also what pearls are made up of except with a pearl the nacre is in much thicker layers than the mother of Pearl but it is the same substance.
Mother of Pearl can be white or a beige color. I use both colors. Mother of Pearl symbolizes protection, soothing, wisdom, prosperity and intuition.

Abalone necklace – rectangle
Abalone is harvested and eaten in many cultures. The swirling color of abalone comes from the inner shell of a sea snail. This snail makes a nacre adding aragonite platelets to it in layers making it harder and more colorful than other types of Mother of Pearl. The colors come from how the microscopic layers are laid down which diffract light into deep hues of purples, green, blues and pink.
New Zealand Abalone is exceptionally colorful. The better quality commands higher prices than a duller paler Abalone.
This Abalone necklace is strung on jewelry cable with a stainless steel lobster claw clasp. I have added faceted amethyst gemstones with flashy crystals.
This necklace is 19 1/2″ length.
