Mother-of-pearl is a natural, pure and unique material. When the mother-of-pearl is stimulated by the invasion of foreign objects in the ocean, it will secrete mother-of-pearl and eventually become a shining pearl. In the process of the nacre gradually forming pearls, the interior of mother-of-pearl will also be polished by nacre. In addition to gorgeous colors, mother-of-pearl also has a unique texture effect and the touch of growth lines and surface flashes.

Many watch brands also make use of this feature of the mother shell to make dials, so that the dials show all kinds of charming colors and light in the sun.

Scope of application of mother-of-pearl

Mother of pearl is actually more widely used. Mother-of-pearl is durable and has a history of thousands of years, from jewelry design to architectural design. In the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, it was deeply loved by western nobles, from handles to clock faces, from furniture to jewelry boxes. Although mother-of-pearl has been used to make various handicrafts as early as the Middle Ages, its application in clocks and watches has gradually spread since the clock age.

The mother-of-pearl dial can be divided into black, gray, white, pink, blue and purple. It has many similarities with pearls. Because of their different living conditions and internal erosion, there will be great differences in color, grain and fineness, so each mother-of-pearl is unique. Many watch brands also use the characteristics of mother-of-pearl to make dials. With exquisite craftsmanship, the dials show all kinds of charming colors and light in the sun.
