What is a clam pearl?
A clam pearl is a solid, rounded object formed inside the shell of a clam, created as a defense mechanism against irritants such as sand or parasites. When an irritant enters the clam, it secretes layers of nacre, or mother-of-pearl, around it, eventually resulting in a pearl. Unlike pearls from oysters, clam pearls are generally less valued and less commonly used in jewelry. They can vary in size, shape, and color, depending on the species of clam and environmental factors.

What does a natural pearl look like?
Yes. It happens when a clam gets 1 grain of sand in its mouth, then the grain of sand turns into a pearl (but I don't know how! Sorry!). Then someone goes clam fishing or finds the clam and opens it up to get the pearl. Not all pearls are white. And not all clams have pearls in their mouths.There is also a process called culturing where a small piece of clam shell is placed inside an oyster's shell. To protect itself from the irritation caused the oyster coats it with th stuff pearls are made of and a pearl is made. The longer the pearl stays in, years, the bigger it gets. Most of the pearls around today are cultured.Yes it does but it is not made by sand. It is actually made by a parasite entering the clam and the clam coats it with nacre. Nacre is what a pearl is made of. Not sand.
