Keshi Pearls
Are luminous and slightly flat.
They’re textured.
And they don’t look like typical pearls.
They’re stunning.
And they’re formed
when a mussel produces a scar
after the cultured pearl is harvested.
Keshi pearls
grow in that space
and develop into something shining
and some might say, even more beautiful,
than the pearl before it.
I learned the story of Keshi pearls from my friend and fellow Mastermind participant Christine Jones, of
Christine Jones Jewelry, when she debuted her Spring Collection last week.

What a lovely story. Not only do the musssels continue to live after being “used, robbed and damaged”, but also continue to participate in bringing joy to others. If a small, bivalve can do that then we have no excuse.
This really resonated with me so I thought I would share one of my favorite quotes with you on this subject…”You’ll always notice the fabric scar, of course, but there’s an art to mending: If you’re careful, the repair can actually add to the beauty of the thing, because it is testimony to its worth.” Elizabeth Berg–The Art of Mending
