Mother-of-pearl shell chips on a 30-inch strand bring natural iridescence and organic texture to your work. Each chip is one-of-a-kind in shape, so no two finished pieces will look exactly alike.

MOP shell has that soft, layered luminescence — light shifts across the surface as the piece moves, giving it a cool, pearlescent glow.

What to make with them

String them as-is for a fluid, free-form necklace, or cut the strand apart and incorporate individual chips into mixed-media earrings and wire-wrapped pendants where the irregular silhouettes add natural character.

Natural materials vary in color, pattern, and size. The beads you receive may differ slightly from the product photos — this is a characteristic of natural materials, not a defect.
