Abstract
The nacre of imaged abalone pearls was obtained as a calcium carbonate of aragonite type. This result was same the nacre of natural abalone pearl. From the observation of SEM for the nacre adhered on the pearl nucleus, it was known that the layers of calcium carbonate and conchiolin were stratified. The growth rate of nacre was found to be 0.0056∼0.0074 mm/day, which is twice faster than that of traditional method used shells. The pendant and brooch were manufactured using the imaged abalone pearls.
