Button Pearl is valued for its distinctive flattened shape, resembling a button. Its compact profile and lustrous nacre make it a popular choice for jewellery designs where a unique pearl shape is desired.

Pearls are organic gemstones formed through the deposition of nacre around an irritant or nucleus within a mollusc. In cultured pearls, this process is initiated under controlled conditions and the pearl develops layers of nacre over time.
