About this piece

Freshwater keshi petal pearls with metallic luster, spaced with gold beads. Adjustable from 6.5 to 7.5 inches — one size fits most wrists.

Specifications
Pearls: Freshwater keshi pearls, petal shape — solid nacre, no nucleus
Pearl size: approx. 7mm
Colour: White with silver and rosé overtones
Luster: Metallic — the top grade, mirror-sharp reflection
Accents: 18K gold plated beads and small round pearls
Length: Adjustable 6.5–7.5 in (16.5–19 cm), including a 5cm extension chain
Clasp: Lobster clasp with heart charm, 18K gold plated eco brass — tarnish-resistant, nickel-free and lead-free.

The 5cm extension chain covers wrists from about 5.5 to 7 inches (14–17.8 cm), which is most adult women. Fasten it at whichever link sits comfortably — snug at the first link, relaxed at the last. No size to choose at checkout, and nothing to send back if you guessed wrong.

The heart charm hangs from the end of the chain, so it sits visibly at the side of your wrist wherever you fasten it.

What keshi pearls are
Keshi pearls form by accident. No nucleus is implanted — the mussel produces the pearl entirely on its own, so it's solid nacre from edge to edge. Because nothing shapes them, they grow in flat, folded, petal-like forms, and no two are alike.

That solid-nacre structure is why the luster here is so bright. There's no bead core under a thin coating; light reflects off the pearl's own crystal layers, which produces the sharp metallic sheen. Keshi is rarer than ordinary cultured pearls for the simple reason that farms can't plan for it.

Each bracelet is unique
Petals grow without any shaping, so the pearls vary in outline, size, and how they overlap along the strand. Yours will differ slightly from the photo — that variation is what makes keshi keshi.

What doesn't vary is the grade. Every bracelet is built from the same 7mm petal pearls with the same metallic luster. You're choosing a quality standard, not a specific arrangement.

How to wear it
Light and low-profile enough for daily wear, bright enough for a wedding. The gold beads keep it warm rather than stark, so it stacks well with gold chains or a watch. Suits brides, bridesmaids, birthdays, graduations, and Mother's Day.

Care
Put it on last, after perfume, hairspray, and lotion
Wipe with a soft dry cloth after wearing
No water, chlorine, saltwater, or ultrasonic cleaners
Store flat in the pouch, out of direct sunlight
Pearls are soft (Mohs 2.5–4.5) — keep apart from metal jewelry
Keep the clasp and chain dry; plating wears with moisture and friction

FAQ

What are keshi pearls? Pearls that form without a nucleus — solid nacre throughout, grown entirely by the mussel. Their flat, petal-like shapes happen naturally and can't be farmed to order.

Are these real pearls? Yes — real freshwater pearls. Their irregular petal shapes are how you tell them from glass or plastic imitations.

What size wrist does this fit? Adjustable 6.5–7.5 inches, which fits wrists of roughly 5.5–7 inches (14–17.8 cm). No size selection needed.

Will mine look like the photo? Close, but not identical. Every keshi pearl is a different shape. Same 7mm size and same metallic luster in every bracelet.

Is the clasp solid gold? No. Eco brass with 18K gold plating.

Can I shower or swim in it? No. Water and chlorine damage nacre and plating. Take it off first.
