You will be very pleased. Majorca pearls are not formed in molluska, but are man-made on solid glass balls coated with layers of pigmented and protective lacquers. They begin from high density dull glass with a specific weight, similar to that of real pearls. These nuclei are then dipped into a special pearly liquid, hemage, an adhesive paste made of oil and ground up fish scales or mother-of-pearl for their iridescence.The coated nuclei are then dried and polished by hand to remove imperfections such as bumps and blemishes. This coating process is repeated until a multitude of fine layers is formed over the nuclei, building up the density and color uniformity.
To assure durability, the formed, blended multiple layers are subjected to various gases and solutions that make them impervious to discoloration, chipping and peeling.
