FAQs
What is mother of pearl?
Mother of Pearl is the name given to the substance that forms the inner layer of the shell of some molluscs, like mussels and pearl oysters. Like pearls, mother of pearl has an iridescent effect, contributing to its distinct beauty and use in making unique jewellery pieces. While it is far less rare than pearl, mother of pearl gives our cufflinks an extra sparkle and sophisticated finish.
What colour is mother of pearl?
Opaque in appearance, mother of pearl is typically cream or white in colour. However, as it comes from an organic material, you’ll also come across blue, green, grey and silver varieties.
Can mother of pearl cufflinks be engraved?
Like all of our cufflinks, mother of pearl cufflinks can be engraved to make them more personal. Our master engravers use a hand engraving process to ensure that the highest level of detail and precision is achieved. You can add custom lettering or a memorable date to your mother of pearl cufflinks to create an accessory that will be cherished for years to come.
Can mother of pearl be worn everyday?
Mother of pearl is highly durable but can scratch if mishandled. The lustre and robustness of the material will be preserved even when worn everyday, as long as you avoid exposing your cufflinks to harsh chemicals and clean them once in a while when necessary. Due to this, mother of pearl cufflinks for men and women are a great choice not only with your suits but also with your everyday wear.
