Oyster bead (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pearl

'oyster bead' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for pearl that I've seen before include "Drop" , "Gem; size of type" , "Paragon" , "something highly valued" , "Lustrous structure in a mollusc shell" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, The Washington Post, The Sun, the L.A. Times Daily and the King Feature Syndicate.
