Mabe pearls are based on a hemispherical nucleus that is inserted through a hole drilled in the outside of the oyster s shell and glued into place. The animal inside will secrete nacre over this round knob which, when harvested, will yield a large pearl that is flat on one side. Mabes and other blister pearls can only be harvested by killing the oyster, since they must be cut out of the shell.

The bivalve mollusks include clams, oysters, mussels and scallops. The common oyster (also called flat native or European oyster) and the blue or common mussel are the most often processed molluscan shellfish.
