Pearls are generally found naturally in mollusks from the fourth class of the Mollusca phylum, bivalvia. These pearl-producing mollusks are often called "pearl oysters," even though they aren't oysters in the strictest sense.
Cultured pearls are grown in a variety of different mollusks and mussels.

Native Americans may have found "pearls" in clams, but those were not "pearls" as we would consider them today. Clams are non-nacreous mollusks and do not produce actual pearls. They produce what are known as "calcareous concretions", which lack the pearly luster associated with pearls as we know them. More likely, Native Americans found pearls in mussels not clams. Those that were near coastal areas may have also found and collected marine pearls, but not from clams.
