So, let’s do this! Red nails for #31dc2017 ♥ My base was a dark red creme (@cirquecolors Rouge Rockefeller) and I put some red metallic flakes on it, then I handpainted the rose pattern with Mundo de Unas stamping polish in 17 Gold. It looks so pretty as the flakes glistening through the gold outlines.

I will post todays prompt (orange) in a couple of hours.

Mikimoto Kōkichi (御木本 幸吉), founder of Mikimoto 10 March 1858 – 21 September 1954

"My dream is to adorn the necks of all women around the world with pearls."

Kokichi Mikimoto – also known as the ‘Pearl King’ – is the inventor of the cultured pearl and the founding father of the modern day pearl industry as we know it.

In 1893 after many years of toiling along the coastline of Toba, and countless failed experiments, Mikimoto finally unlocked the secret to cultivating pearls of such lustre and quality that they rivaled those found in nature.

He discovered that by implanting a small spherical object (“the core”) wrapped in oyster mantle into an Akoya oyster, the object would be completely covered in layers of mother of pearl over time. This amazing discovery ignited the Japanese cultured pearl industry and Mikimoto himself helped to build the country’s significant global trade.

However as a true alchemist of the sea, Mikimoto’s discoveries did not stop there. Amongst other things, Mikimoto went on to cultivate the first stunning South Sea black-lip pearls in Okinawa (so rare they were considered to be figments of the imagination) and silver-lip pearls in Palau.

With these discoveries, Mikimoto changed the pearl trade forever.
