LEARN MORE
Pearls from the Placunidae family are among the more unusual natural pearls, known for their distinctive structure and mosaic-like surface patterns rather than traditional nacre layering.
Unlike classic nacreous pearls, these pearls exhibit a cellular or porcelain-like appearance, often with soft metallic tones. Fine near-round examples with strong, well-defined patterning are rare and not commonly seen in the market, making them of particular interest to collectors and designers seeking unconventional natural pearls.
