What is Mother of Pearl?

Mother of pearl, also called nacre, is an iridescent layer of material that forms the shell lining of many mollusks. Pearl oysters and abalone are both sources of this substance, which is widely used as an inlay in jewelry, furniture, and musical instruments. Mother of pearl comes in several natural colors as seen here in cream and white.

Mother of Pearl Shell

Formation

Two substances, one mineral and the other organic, combine to create mother of pearl. Tiny hexagonal plates of aragonite, a form of calcium carbonate, are arranged in layers alternating with conchiolin, a flexible protein similar to silk that is secreted by the mollusk. Aragonite on its own is very brittle, but combined with the protein it forms a strong, flexible material that can withstand hard use.

The mollusk first of all secretes a layer of conchiolin. Aragonite crystals then form on this surface at numerous points, growing until they meet each other to form tiny plates. A further layer of protein is then deposited and so on, so that over time, many layers build up.

The resilience of pearls comes from its layered structure and the contrast in properties between the mineral and organic layers. The aragonite consists if hard, brittle crystals, while the organic protein layers are a natural polymer that is flexible and resistant to fracture. The aragonite gives relative rigidity to the material and the protein counteracts the brittleness of the aragonite by preventing the spread of fractures. The result is a natural product that is tough and resilient.  Mother of pearl has a hardness of about 3.5 on Moh’s scale. This is quite soft compared with gemstones and most metals.

Mollusks create Mother of Pearl to protect themselves

In addition to forming part of the shell, it also insulates mollusks from bacterial infection and parasites. Another function of this substance is to reduce irritation or damage from material such as sand or grit that drifts into the shell. The particle is gradually surrounded by layers of nacre, rendering it harmless. This may result in a blister-like irregularity on the inside of the shell, or it may create the unattached, spherical structure that is much prized by humans as a pearl.

Uses of Mother of Pearl: Mother of Pearl Bracelet

The pearly lining of mollusk shells has long been noted by people living near the ocean. Many early cultures used it extensively in jewelry and it came to be highly prized. Although not as popular as it once was, many modern cultures still appreciate its beauty and pearls continues to be used in jewelry, ornaments, furniture inlays and musical instruments.

Nacre has been much studied by scientists interested not only in its strength and durability, but also in what it can tell them about the conditions in which it formed. The thickness and structure of the layers secreted by marine mollusks depends on the temperature and water pressure. It is therefore possible to obtain valuable information about past conditions from the study of fossilized material.
