Keshi Pearl Facts

Keshi pearls are the pearls that are loved by the Human beings and rejected by the oysters or mollusks. These pearls are formed in a very unique way as compared to the other methods of pearl formation. When the piece of a shell gets trapped in the mollusk, it ensues an infection. The oyster starts healing itself by forming nacre layers on the intruding substance to prevent further irritation. Till the oyster is alive, the layers of nacre keep on forming and the result is a beautiful and divine: A Keshi Pearl.

Although, Keshi pearls have been excluded from the category of natural pearls because they are not formed naturally and is a result of the pearl culturing process; but it gives the looks and shine much better than the natural pearls. Nowadays these pearls have become exceptional and infrequent. This is because the farmers have started x-raying the oysters to find out if the nucleus is present in it or not or whether it is expelled out. If an oyster is found expelling its nucleus then they are re-nucleated before the formation of a Keshi pearl. This process has made Keshi pearls even rarer than they actually were.

But even then, Keshi pearls have always remained popular because the solid nacre imparts a very high luster and excellent quality to the pearl. Its variable shapes are desirable to the jewelers who want to create some unique and innovative designs for the pearl jewelry.

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.
