A shell pearl is created from the actual shell of mollusks, oysters, and other similar creatures. It is also referred to as the “mother of pearl” that is often used to design jewelry, ornaments, accessories, and clothing.
It can serve as an accent or fashion piece in various uses. The shell pearl remains as a popular item for design and currently serves no other functional purposes. The material of the shell pearl does not possess any levels of conductivity, it’s not malleable, and it is not strong enough to serve any other purposes.There is a high demand and market for the shell pearl in different parts of the world since it is consistently used by jewelers.
The creation of the shell bead is done in many steps which are all done by human intervention. All of the processes are imperative to the final look and quality of what the shell pearl will have once it’s ready to be released to the public.
The process will start with various specialized mother of pear sea beds and artificial pools where the mollusks and oysters rapidly grow in abundance and in good form and health. This will help to provide a consistent and stable source of high quality shells that can be used in the creation the actual shell bead. These types of shell farms also will produce actual pearls as well.
After the shells have been cultivated from the water farms they will be sent for processing in order to create the shell pearl. The first step will include hand selecting the good shells in which the pearls will be created from. Next the shells will be cut into strips that can be easily sliced by a machine and transformed into tiny spheres.
These tiny spheres are unpolished and rough, which will have to be manually shaped in order to achieve a better desired shape. Once the shell has been turned into beads they will be checked for quality and the machine will drill small holes that can be used to string the beads together.
All stringing is done manually and then later framed and stored for final processing. The framing happens when the end of the strings are connected into a large frame. The result of the framing will be several strings that will be aligned parallel from each other. The shell pearl beads are often dyed which is how colored shell beads are made.
In order to perfect the dye coating the shell pears are placed into a large oven where they will be left temporarily to bake. This helps to create a nice even coat of dye and help to temper the consistence and toughness of the entire bead. Once they are finished baking the shell pearl will have finishing touches done before being released to the public. This includes polishing and a last round of inspection to ensure there are no flaws.
