The tiny NFC chip, embedded in the pearl, has the ability to hold recordings of voice messages that can be heard with an simple application on a smartphone. Now you can capture the voice of your loved one in a timeless piece of jewelry that will carry on through generations to come. Genius, right?!
While some pearl designers are embedding pearls with NFC chips, others are slicing open pearls to set an array of diamonds and gemstones into the pearl. The finished product is phenomenal!
