Freshwater Pearls are ‘cultured pearls’ produced by freshwater mussels, ‘farmed’ in a sustainable way. (As opposed to saltwater pearls that are produced by oysters.) They can be a number of different colours, these range from pure white, to cream, peach, pink and also purple. There are several different types of freshwater mussel (bivalve) that can produce freshwater pearls. The freshwater mussels secrete nacre which gradually over the course of several years will produces the freshwater pearl. The pearls come from a variety of countries including Scotland, the USA, Japan and also China.
Metaphysically Freshwater Pearls have always had associations with innocence, purity and faith. They can also help release feminine energy and also have the ability to help nurture love, and give inner peace.
