Pearls are formed within the soft tissue of a living shelled mollusk, primarily oysters and mussels. When an irritant, such as a grain of sand or a parasite, enters the mollusk, the creature secretes layers of nacre, a combination of aragonite (a form of calcium carbonate) and conchiolin (an organic protein), around the irritant. Over time, these layers accumulate and form a pearl.
