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.
