A very nice piece indeed, thanks for sharing!

Beautifully iridescent and not too many brown organic parts, which is a good thing from an aesthetic point of view and makes it more durable.
 
You will have to be careful with the tip, which is a weak part of that type of pearl and seems to be split already. If you intend to make a jewel out of it, you will have to think of the proper setting to consolidate the tip.
