We have pearls in a gradient!


We have made pearls, a standard for prayer beads, even more beautiful with gradient colors!



Pearls are a standard for formal jewelry and are very popular.

Their pure shine is also popular for prayer beads.





Pearls are a substance that shellfish produce to protect their bodies.

At that time, they become rice-shaped or various other shapes because they do not have a nucleus, and

they change color by incorporating pigments.



They are one of the oldest gemstones, and were once used as medicine.



The value of a pearl is determined by the thickness of the nacreous layer, called the "roll," the "luster" that indicates the luster, the presence or absence of scratches, and the shape.



Pearls that form inside freshwater shells such as crow oysters are called freshwater pearls.



Freshwater pearls do not grow into perfect circles because no nuclei are inserted during cultivation,

and each one grows into a different shape, such as a rice shape.



The potato-shaped pearls we have prepared this time are oval in shape, and each pearl has a slightly different shape.



Freshwater pearls do not have nuclei and are made entirely of nacre,

so one of their characteristics is that they are durable.



This time, we have combined these freshwater pearls with crystals to create a gradation of colors.
