lightning bolt pearl

I found this at a local antique fair/flea market and I wanted to share it. I call it the lightning bolt pearl.

It's about 5 cm long, not including the bail.

Wow, about 2 inches! Probably freshwater bar pearls that grew together, high luster, great find! Great name, too!

Cool and reminds me of Harry Potter's scar!
