Keshi pearls are a by-product of pearl farming, they have formed without a bead inside so they are 100% nacre, the shimmery substance that coats cultured pearls
Most gems are stones, but a few like Pearl, Amber, Jet, and Coral, are classified as Organic gems, meaning they came from living things.
Pearls are formed inside bivalves (similar to oysters), which coat any foreign substance that gets inside their shell with a smooth layer of pearly nacre to reduce the irritation.
