Take home this pearl grown on a freshwater farm on the Tennessee River. Run by the same family for decades, the methods they employ are used by modern pearl farms around the world to create a sustainable harvest of one of the world's natural treasures.

According to crystal therapy tradition, pearls are used to help balance the body's rhythms and hormonal levels with the lunar cycles and to harmonize humans with nature.

Please note: There are a number of pearls available so the photograph is purely illustrative.
