Mother-of-pearl the iridescent shell of the mollusc, which was cut and shaped into backing plates for seed pearl clusters and Victorian lockets and portrait brooches.From 1900 to the 1930s mother-of-pearl was very popular in gentlemen’s accessories especially cufflinks.
Carat can refer to the quality or purity of gold – pure gold ie a metal that is 100% gold and nothing else but gold, is known as pure gold or 24-carat gold
So for example with a ring which is 18 carat ie 18/24s gold or put another way, 18 divided by 24 is 0.750 or 3/4
