    This video reminded me of my mom's draw of pearls. I always went and borrowed her pearls only cause she had a variety to choose from.
    She gave me a set of pastel fresh water pearls and the other day I bought myself my own white pearls.

    Hi, I am just a regular chef who managed to get very tiny white pearl in one of oysters at my restaurant. Pearl is about 2 milimeters in size. So I was wondering if it has any value other than rarity to find it? Only 1 in 5 years.

    Actually an Oyster does Not secrete Mother of Pearl. Mother of Pearl is what lines the shell. What an Oyster does secrete to create a pearl is nacre, that forms layer by layer to make a pearl.

    • @ronham12

      Jenn P No, nacre IS mother of pearl...

    • @mimib.9173
      @mimib.9173 6 лет назад +7

      NO. Mother of pearl is called mother of pearl because the shell is THE mother to the pearl it creates.... It is nacre and nacre only that coats a pearl...

    • @CAT-qh2cl
      @CAT-qh2cl 5 лет назад +3

      Nacre (/ˈneɪkər/ NAY-kər also /ˈnækrə/ NAK-rə), also known as mother of pearl, is an organic-inorganic composite material produced by some molluscs as an inner shell layer; it also makes up the outer coating of pearls. It is strong, resilient, and iridescent.

    Creation''s perfect, if you say there's no perfection there shouldn't be imperfection aswell... so all is perfect just the way they are... imperfections means aberrations, sickness, deterioration, damage or destruction of the creation. Any other characteristics are just that, details, characteristics, styles, forms, shapes, etc... Good vid, anyways regards! :)

  • @lilbird2734
    @lilbird2734 5 лет назад +2

    I have pearls that are very old"80yrs". They are off white and have a luster of different colors that are layered. There is one large that is round flat. Plus 2 smaller flats, the rest are round. They were given to my mom on her honeymoon. U said nothing of round flat. I think they were bought at Niagara falls. Do u think the flats are that way because of their age, when they were in the shell or cultured when they did that way back when? They are so lusterous.

    • @andreayaya
      @andreayaya 3 года назад

      I think that might be called a "blister" pearl. They could have larger flatter pearls grow on the sides of mollusks (I think) and they could be used especially in earrings or in jewelry where you want a larger size pearl but want it to lay flat instead of protrude out from the design.

    • @edennis8578
      @edennis8578 3 года назад

      The flats could be "coin" pearls, so called because they are coin shaped. They are often used for earrings or pendants, but I have entire necklaces made of coin pearls. These days, they put the right shape into the shell in order to obtain different shapes of flat pearls: round, square, even heart-shaped.

    • @andreayaya
      @andreayaya 3 года назад +1

      Not bad per se but if you have a cultured pearl it kind of ruins the surface to apply dye to it. But costume (fake) pearls can have colors and be great.

    • @edennis8578
      @edennis8578 3 года назад

      I have purchased some very nice dyed pearls, but usually the dye dulls the glow of the pearl's surface. They can still be pretty, but it's a choice.

      You can find a single floating Tahitian pearl necklace for about that size for around $80-$100 on Etsy. I know because they are very popular on my island and most of the Tahitian pearl Jewelry on Etsy are from Polynesian islands from Tahiti & Hawaii.

    @deboraballes9044 3 года назад

    I'm surprised a professional mentions the tooth test, though it does work it is extemely damaging to the soft pearl....and very gross to put something in your mouth you arent sure who else has before you (and in 2021 its even worse)

    • @edennis8578
      @edennis8578 3 года назад

      It isn't damaging unless you rub much harder than you need to. I own many pearls; I can tell by touch that they feel slightly gritty; no teeth necessary. If you hold them together in your hand, you can feel the texture of one pearl against another, and it causes no damage whatsoever unless you're a real clutz.
