Mother of pearl, or nacre, is an organic gem known for its iridescent beauty, formed from layers of calcium carbonate and conchiolin. It possesses gemological properties including a range of colors (whites, creams, blues, pinks, greens), an opalescent sheen from light refraction, and a low hardness of 2.5–4.5 on the Mohs scale. Metaphysically, it is associated with emotional healing, clarity of thought, intuitive ability, and stress relief, acting as a shield against negative energy. I have lots of other jewelry in my shop.
