Save the Pearl: Make Jewelry from Repurposed Pearls

Countless pearls are discarded every year simply because they don’t meet traditional standards of perfection. At MYOJU 明珠, we see beauty in imperfection.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll choose a repurposed pearl and transform it into your own unique piece of jewelry. No prior experience is needed—just bring your creativity!
