Horse Brooch

Seed Pearl Popularity Dates Back to the 18th Century

A seed pearl is very tiny. It's about 2 mm in diameter and weighs 1/4 of a grain. They're formed only through a natural process. This means that oysters fabricated them naturally and there is no human intervention in their production (but of course, imitations of these pearls made from plastic are already available today).

They got their name because of their size. And because they are so small, you would need hundreds if not thousands of them to form a single brooch or a necklace with an intricate design.

Early Beginnings

In the mid-1800s, seed pearl came from China and India. Imagine how the laborers would drill these pearls carefully in the middle while preventing it to break in two. They must have been very skilled! Maybe they have used magnifying glasses too.

Before stringing the pearls, they would drill a foundation as a guide to be placed at the back of the jewelry. This foundation is made from mother of pearl. It is necessary to add this extra support because of the fullness and thickness of each piece. And do you know how they string these pearls together? They use a very fine horse hair, because sometimes silk thread does not fit into the hole drilled in the pearl.

They need workers with good eyes and small hands to accomplish this feat. And according to historical reports, these workers sometimes work nonstop for 12 hours just to finish one piece of jewelry.

Seed Pearl Jewelry

Seed pearl became very popular during the late 18th century and even carrying over to the entire 19th century. During this time, the middle and upper class people from the United States and Europe became very fond of these pearls.

Since the usual patterns were based on lace-like designs, they often marveled at how beautiful and delicate it appears next to the skin. In fact, they made it as a symbol of purity, and often give it as presents to their young brides.

The seed pearl industry began to flourish in that era, especially since these Victorians have the money to buy in bulk. This high demand started a huge cottage industry which prompted more workers to produce more jewelries as years go by.

Proper Care

Today in the 21st century, the pearl industry has already developed a modern approach to its manufacturing process and design. Long necklaces are popular nowadays, and somehow, there are different seed pearl shapes that emerged such as rice pearls, potato pearls, and button pearls. Different colors came too, like black, pink, gold, red, and blue.

Since these pearls are made from organic material, it should be treated with tender loving care. Always put them on after applying any lotion or spraying any perfume. Bear in mind that it should be the last thing that you put on your body before you leave the house. While wearing, do not make it a habit to touch them frequently because the acid from your hands might dull the luster from the surface of the pearl. Wipe them gently with a soft, damp cloth after use and store them separately into your jewelry box.
