Pearls and their sustainable journey
Did you know pearls are ocean’s silent guardians?
In our environmental journey with pearls, we can say they are not just timeless and beautiful, they’ re also one of the most sustainable gems on Earth. Unlike traditional mining, which often harms
ecosystems, pearls are cultivated in living oysters in clean, protected waters.
And here’s the magic: for pearls to grow, the marine environment must be healthy. That means pearl farms have every reason to protect ocean biodiversity.
Oysters are natural water filters, each one can clean up to 190 liters of water a day. By simply existing, they improve the water clarity and support the surrounding ecosystem. It’s like nature’s version of slow fashion: beautiful, thoughtful and rooted in balance.
Sustainable pearl farming also encourages the preservation of mangroves and coral reefs, helping to maintain the marine life and reduce ocean pollution. Every pearl you wear is a small celebration of the sea’s natural harmony.
Therefore, our pearls are the result of a responsible and meticulous cultivation, coming from the farms growing the finest pearls in a responsible manner, with unwavering ethical practices.
The journey to achieving 'High Quality' is a long and demanding one. To optimize the oysters for the crucial "nuclei insertion" stage, they are carefully induced into a state of dormancy once they've reached the appropriate size. The pearl itself is born as layers of lustrous nacre gradually accumulate around the nucleus – a natural material derived directly from the mother oyster. Ultimately, after an extended period of nurturing, pearls are carefully harvested by hand. This timing is crucial, as it allows the formation of a delicate, final layer that enhances pearl's luster and overall quality. Each individual gem is then lovingly extracted by hand.
This approach highlights responsible cultivation practices, such as carefully selecting farming locations to avoid sensitive habitats like coral reefs and
seagrass beds, with the ultimate goal is to produce beautiful pearls while preserving the delicate balance of the ocean for future
generations.
We are extremely proud to be supporting such a sustainable journey and to enhance our jewelry design with these delicate and pure gems.
