Mabé pearls are a special type of cultured pearls; they are also called cultured shell or cultured blister pearls.
Mabe pearls get their name from the mollusk "Mabe-Gai" (Pteria penguin) in which they grow. Unlike many other pearls, the Mabe pearl grows on the inside of the mollusk shell. This is how the typical shape of these pearls is formed: Flat on one side, semicircular curved on the other; therefore, this shape is also called half pearl. Very attractive are also pieces of jewelry, in which in addition to the actual pearl, the shell surrounding it is also used.
Hello! My name is Marco Schreier, I am the stone-loving founder of the Mineralienhandlung GmbH of the same name. My career in the field of gemstones, precious stones, pearls and designer jewelry only began relatively late.
Originally, my attention was focused on collector's minerals, then on polished stone products such as tumbled stones, etc. Later, drilled stones were added, which, worn on a leather strap, were the first jewelry we offered. With the establishment of our office in Bali, Indonesia in 2001 and shortly afterwards our office and company in Hong Kong, I created the basis for integrating many of my favorites such as special crystals, specially cut, rare gemstones, free-form cabochons, beads and pearls into my own jewelry.
