Handcrafted Eco Friendly 70" Endless Strand Mother of Pearl Necklace

Respecting our earth by using its elements to design Eco Friendly Fine Jewelry Creations. I have designed a beautiful Mother of Pearl Endless Strand Necklace from MOP flat round disc that were produced from natural resources. In the Philippines, they have been using techniques that have been handed down from generation to generation. Some of the resources include using coconut twigs, tigerwood, bamboo, "mother of pearl", cowrie shells and other natural resources. No endangered woods or wildlife are affected by the making of these items. Designers and artisan's who are passionate about the planet and its preservation craft these works of art by hand that might otherwise be discarded. They page homage to their ancestry and Mother Nature.

MaggieMays created a necklace using natural Mother of Pearl that you can "Adorn any ensemble beautifully with a striking piece of jewelry, that you can wear with a green conscience, knowing you are respecting our precious environment." A endless strand necklace with no worry about trying to clasp. It would make a wonderful gift for those who have arthritis or a disability that would help with from having to finagle with closing clasps.

Where does Mother of Pearl originate - Nacre also known as mother of pearl, is an organic-inorganic composite material produced by some mollusks as an inner shell layer; it is also what makes up the outer coating of pearls. It is very strong, resilient, and iridescent (shows a colorful back on each shell).
