Often used as a metaphor for something fine, elegant, valuable or recherché, our Pearl gems draw inspiration from the French Crown Jewels and regalia seen on display in the Galerie d’Apollon of the Louvre. Given the name Pearl for the luster of the delicate silk highlights within the designs, each treasure is woven from the finest raw hand-spun wool available and meticulously hand-knotted in soft, subtle tone-on-tone colorations found in a mollusk’s mother of pearl.
