AI overview
Nacre is the shimmering, iridescent layer found inside certain shells, like those of nautiluses and oysters, that creates the lustrous appearance we call mother-of-pearl. It matters because its unique combination of strength and beauty has made it valuable for both decorative objects and as a subject of scientific study for understanding natural materials.

Article · Português
Madrepérola ou nácar é uma substância, dura, irisada, rica em calcário, produzida por alguns moluscos, no interior de sua concha, que é utilizada em bijuteria e marchetaria. O nácar das conchas é feito de camadas planas, enquanto as pérolas finas, produzidas pelas ostras, são compostas por camadas esféricas e concêntricas feitas pelos mesmos elementos do nácar. É produzida especialmente pelos bivalves.
