About this Product
This pendant features a candlelight South Sea keshi pearl on sterling silver. It measures 9.6 x 8.5 x 5.6 mm and weighs 0.41 grams. Both sides are shown. Keshi pearls are free-form, non-nucleated pearls, often the by-product of pearl cultivation and, as a result, they are solid nacre and can have incredible luster.
US dime (18 mm) shown for scale. Pearl info below. Chain not included (to keep prices lower for you), but if you need one, contact me.
Pearls are one of the most beloved gems, used for millennia in jewelry and decoration, and are the only gems grown inside a living organism. The first recorded mention of pearls is 7,500 years old. They are one of a few organic gemstones, including ivory, amber, and coral.
Pearls are one of the birthstones of June, along with color-changing alexandrite, and moonstone. It is also the 3rd and 30th wedding anniversary gem.
South Sea pearls are currently the largest and most valuable pearls produced today. They are produced by the silver or golden lipped oyster, known scientifically as the Pinctada maxima oyster, which are found on the shores of Australia, Indonesia and the Philippines.
