Full description
These are beautiful grey mother of pearl shell long ovals with iridescent shades and hues of blue and pink in certain light, and the reverse side is a milky stunning mother of pearl lustre. They are suspended on top quality sterling silver hooks (from the Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham). I have shown the reverse side showing the mother of pearl light shade, and the darker grey shade.
Mother of Pearl (MOP), or Nacre is an organic-inorganic composite material produced by some mollusks as an inner shell layer. It is also what makes up pearls. It is very strong, resilient, and iridescent. Nacre appears iridescent because the thickness of the aragonite platelets is close to the wavelength of visible light. This results in constructive and destructive interference of different wavelengths of light, resulting in different colours of light being reflected at different viewing angles.
These very sophisticated earrings are presented in a gift box and shipped standard UK "signed for" and standard international
Keep your shell jewellery in good order by spraying your perfume before you wear your earrings as perfume can damage shell and pearls
