Jewellery - Biwa Pearl

When a single, rough grain of sand irritates an oyster, it is gradually transformed into a beautiful pearl. So too this gem reminds its wearer to transform the irritations of life, to seek serenity and to walk with dignity.

In the East, pearls symbolise prosperity and long life, while in the West, they are said to represent innocence and a pure heart, instilling a sense of calm self-acceptance, while stimulating feminine integrity.

Long ago it was believed that pearls were moonbeams which fell into the ocean and were swallowed by oysters. Biwa Pearls are a type of baroque freshwater pearl cultured in Japan.
