Pearl
Moti · मोतीMoon (Chandra)
A gem grown inside a mollusc — linked to the Moon.
What it is
Natural or cultured nacre. Softer than every other stone here, which is why it needs different handling.
What the classical texts associate with it
- calm
- steady emotions
- family life
- sleep and peace of mind
These are traditional associations recorded in the classical literature. They are not claims about what will happen, and nothing here is medical, financial or legal advice.
Certification
Supplied with a laboratory report identifying the species, the origin where determinable, and whether the stone is natural and untreated. The report describes the stone itself — it says nothing about results.
Choosing the right one
Size is given in carats or millimetres depending on the source. Natural and cultured are priced very differently and we will always tell you which you are being offered.
Looking after it
- Pearls are soft and porous — keep away from perfume, hairspray and acids.
- Wipe with a damp cloth only.
- Store wrapped in soft cloth, never with harder stones.
