Pearls are a living gem....the
connective energy of atoms that frames the crystalline structure of
pearls has always been respected in meta-physical worlds. The
conchiolin protein in a pearl which binds these crystals, if
pharmaceutically extracted then applied, will heal the
skin of burn victims with less pain and scarring and this has been
shown in the scientific world…pearls are a healing
gem. |
We select our pearls direct
from the pearl farm and guarantee that our pearls are natural color
and unprocessed. We lightly clean the pearls by tumbling them in
salt water or light buffing to remove ocean residue left on the
pearl’s surface at harvest. Large Asian pearl wholesalers
which sell to American pearl wholesalers are very skilled in
processing medium and low grade pearls to make them appear higher
grade. They strip down the pearl’s nacreous surface by acid soaking
or barrel spinning them with abrasives hoping to improve the
appearance of luster, (which is only a temporary benefit) or
reducing the depth of any naturally occuring blemishes. Using heat,
irradiation and dyes enhances color and is unstable. All
these artificial processes weaken the pearl’s structure and
destroys the essence of why we want to adorn ourselves with
pearls...something found in a natural state from the womb of the
abyss. Beautiful pearls naturally glow from the inside (orient)
like the soul of an enlightened person. Our moderate grade pearls
sell for very low prices, they are what they are, we do not enhance
any of our pearls thus not creating an illusion to sell them for
more...this is another element of the authenticity of Pearls
Krisana.

This is the
surface of a Mother of Pearl shell of the Tahitian
Pearl(Pinctada margaritifera) reflecting the same natural beauty as
the pearl as it is made exactly of the same pearly nacre. Pearls
have a natural beauty imparted by orient and color, the pearl
requires no cutting or polishing to out its radiant sheen. With
perfection as its birth right, the pearl stands alone among gems.
Orient is the pearl's famous iridescence, which sets it apart from
other jewels. Orient defines the essence of pearliness---the
uniquely captivating play of light over the translucent surface of
the gem. Layer upon layer of nacre, each one composed of
overlapping plates of translucent aragonite mineral crystals glued
together with conchiolin protein makes up the gem. It can be
compared to that of a cabbage with layers of overlapping leaves.
Orient occurs at the serrated edges of the leaves---the aragonite
plates---where light diffracts and scatters. As the rays of light
pass through the microscopic layers of aragonite and conchiolin,
they reflect off the surface of these two substances in a different
manner, producing different wavelengths. This interference produces
the rainbow effect of iridescence that seems to swirl over a pearls
surface. Most artificial pearl treatments, especially those with
heat, irradiation or chemicals breaks down this natural interplay
of light, crystals and protein. |
