Share Your Stories of Muscatine Pearls

Natural River Pearl Ring Button Museum

Muscatine pearls often enter a conversation as I speak with folks around town about the local Muscatine button industy and hear the stories of cutting, carding or polishing buttons.

Lots of the nicest pearls were brought home for a wife or sweetheart and often put into a ring, brooch or other jewelry piece as a momento of Muscatine.

These are real American treasures and I invite you to share the story about your local Mississippi River pearls here and also share a photo so everyone can enjoy the lovely natural pearls.
