The most highly valued gemstone is the pearl than any other gemstone as it defines the true elegance of the woman. Pearls have been used form a very long time to adorn the beautiful necks of the women. The most valued pearl among all the pearls is the Keshi Pearl.

Keshi pearl is a non beaded pearl that is accidentally formed as a bi-product of the pearl culturing process. The formation of Keshi pearls takes place after the rejection and spitting of the nucleus by the oyster before the completion of the pearl culturing process. Or in some cases, the implanted tissue breaks and creates different pearl sacs without any nuclei. These pearls sacs gradually results in the formation of a pearl having no nucleus.

Keshi pearls can be both either freshwater or salt water. They are usually smaller in size up to 4-5 mm as there is no nucleus to guide the shaping of the pearl. This is the reason why Keshi pearls are available in varying sizes. You will not find any Keshi p[earl of the same size or shape. They come in a spectrum of different colors, have a very high luster and are found very rarely. Keshi p[earls are very popular for their luster. After expelling the implanted nucleus of the pearl by the oyster, the Keshi pearl has 100% nacre. This nacre imparts a lustrous shine and a shimmering surface to the pearl.

Keshi pearls are not classified as natural pearls, though they are beautiful and unique because it is not something that happens naturally. Today, these pearls are very extinct and so they are also very expensive. It is actually a bi-product of the culturing process. They are also referred as “poppy seed pearls” because Keshi means poppy seed in Japanese.
