Mexican Pearls
This is a beautiful and colorful pearl oyster shell with a mabe pearl from the "Rainbow Lip Pearl Oyster" (Pteria sterna) that has been carefully polished to offer you a very special display or collector's item. NOTE: Occasionally, shipping could take up to 3 weeks to get delivered. "Fish and Wildlife" agents may require extra documentation during their inspections.
These shells are all grown in our Sustainable Pearl Farm in Guaymas, Sonora, Gulf of California, Mexico, so they do not come from any illegal fishery but from an Environmentally friendly operation.
Out of every 100 shells that are taken to be polished, only about 30 of them end up being able to be offered for sale: these shells are thin and often attacked by drill worms that weaken it further, so they are not produced by the thousands, they are very special pieces!
=========================================================
Ésta, es una bella concha pulida con perla, de la ostra "Concha Nacar" (Pteria sterna) de hermosos colores y especial forma, que ha sido cuidadosamente trabajada para ofrecerte una pieza especial de exhibición o de colección. NOTA: El envío puede tomar hasta 3 semanas ya que en ocasiones los agentes de "Fish and Wildlife" pueden requerir documentos extras.
Estas conchas se producen en nuestra granja de perlas sustentables en Guaymas, Sonora, Golfo de California, México, por lo que no procede de la pesca ilegal de ostras.
De cada 100 conchas que son llevadas al pulido, tan solo 30 llegan a "sobrevivir" ya que los parásitos perforadores afectan a las conchas y se quiebran o no se ven hermosas. La producción anual es limitada a menos de mil por año.
