Mother-of-pearl is defined as the hard, smooth, pearly, iridescent nacreous layers that make up the inner surface of a pearl-producing mollusk's shell. The funny thing is, no one seems to mind that it isn't really a pearl's mother at all. In fact, it should probably be called house-of-pearl. The pearl's mother is the living mussel, for it is the living organism that lays down the aragonite and calcite that forms both the nacre of the pearl and mother-of-pearl – who knew?


Mother of Pearl is sometimes called Nacre, is not actually a crystal, but is obtained from the internal lining of either the pearl oyster shell or the abalone shell. It brings with it the gentle healing powers of the seas. Mother of Pearl is both relaxing and soothing to the emotions. It is considered both a stress relieving stone and a very protective stone.

Throughout history, certain cultures have placed little or no value on pearls and have focused instead on luminescent mother-of-pearl from mollusk shells. Before the 19th century, Japanese shell divers who found pearls apparently did not bother to keep them. Polynesian children are said at one time to have used pearls as marbles. These and other peoples harvested pearl oysters for their shells, using the mother-of-pearl for decoration. Abalone was also popular with many groups, including those in the Americas: people ate the flesh of the mollusks and used pieces of colorful abalone shell as inlay on carved objects made of wood, ivory and bone.
