The abnormal growth in a Pearl is produced when the body of the mollusk is invaded by
some foreign matter. The oyster soothes the irritations by secreting a brownish solution
called Conchiolin, it binds the Nacre together. Nacre is found in the oyster shells’ internal
layer. A single pearl is produced with several very thin layers of this nacre.
The silver-gold aura of pearls produced by the living oyster is no less than an exquisite
work of art. The biological process inside the oysters ensures that no two pearls are
identical.
