Description:

A pearl is created when an irritant, such as a small piece of sand, finds its way into an oyster or mollusk. The oyster or mollusk starts secreting a fluid to coat the irritant. This material is nacre, layers of organic material with a carbon-based mineral known as aragonite. The uniform layering is the same thickness as the wavelength of visible light, so the light reflecting from its interior surface interferes with the light reflecting from the outer surface, creating iridescence. After six months to several years, this protective mechanism creates a pearl.
