About Mother of Pearl:
Mother of Pearl, known for its iridescent sheen and natural beauty, has been cherished as a gemstone for centuries across various cultures. Formed from the inner shell layer of mollusks, this organic material has been used in jewelry, ornamentation, and art since ancient times. Civilizations such as the Egyptians, Chinese, and Indigenous peoples of the Americas utilized Mother of Pearl not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its symbolic meanings. Historically, it has been associated with purity, wisdom, and protection, often believed to bring serenity and a sense of calm to its wearer. In many cultures, Mother of Pearl symbolizes emotional healing and nurturing, guiding individuals toward inner peace and self-acceptance. Its soothing energy is thought to enhance intuition and promote emotional balance, making it a popular choice in spiritual practices and crystal healing. Today, Mother of Pearl continues to be celebrated not just for its beauty but also for its profound connection to the sea and the transformative power it represents.
