Amazon Collection Sterling Silver 12mm Simulated Shell Pearl Ring

Elegance, made easy. This contemporary ring showcases a radiant chocolate shell pearl, cradled between curved bars of sterling silver and centered on an attractive split band. Rhodium overlay adds a luxury finish that's hypoallergenic and tarnish-resistant.

Shell pearls are man-made simulated pearls created from organic materials. They are called €œshell pearls€ because each pearl nucleus bead is made from an actual shell of a clam.  Many layers of pearl essence, made from crushed oyster shell, are applied until a lovely pearl luster is created.

Because they employ a shell nucleus and repeated layers of coating, shell pearls have a similar weight and feel, and the same deep luster found in excellent quality genuine pearls, at a fraction of the price.
