| Publisher Description: Pearls have an amazing allure and beauty, all for starting as an irritating speck of dust. Always at the height of fashion, the pearl has enchanted and delighted seekers of beauty, rarity, wealth, and power throughout history. But the pearl's appeal goes far beyond personal adornment. Treasured by royalty, stolen by pirates, and hoarded in dragon's secret lairs, the promise of the pearl and its legendary mystical, restorative, and healing powers have ignited imaginations for centuries. Path of the Pearl captures the strength of this enduring symbol by using the pearl as a metaphor for personal growth. |
