Layer upon layer of nacreous nurturing, naturally formed pearls are among the most exquisite and luxurious gems. Not only are they precious, but also significantly rare. It takes a large duration of time and proper care from the Nacre, formerly known as the mother of the pearl, to form such beautiful shaped gem stones. To imagine a grain of sand, capable to change into such an iridescent gem; something so worthless shape shifting into something so valuable almost seems preposterous. Beyond the expense

In this story we see just that. Not just in the doll itself but with the people in the story. Poppets are sometimes referred to as “voodoo” dolls. Those dolls were believed to have supernatural powers of witchcraft, and were used to harm people. In this story, the poppet given to Elizabeth symbolizes both victimization
