Temporarily strung, claspless I didn't sell Mother of Pearl for about 20 years because I didn't want to be responsible for killing anything that wasn't eaten. A Fijian clean up guy in the mall where I had a pushcart told me they just raked the shells up on the beach and let the fire ants do the rest. Since then the Chinese have convinced me they are eating the animal and the shell is a byproduct. Like tofu pups. There are about 65 beads on a 6mm strand. Bleached to get that whiteness.
