PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pigment prepared by coating the surface of a layered alkali metal polysilicate with a metal oxide; to provide a pearl pigment at a low price whose size and shape are easily controlled; and to provide a composition comprising the pearl pigment prepared by coating the surface of a layered alkali metal polysilicate with a metal oxide. SOLUTION: The pigment comprises a layered alkali metal polysilicate as a substrate, wherein the surface thereof is coated with a metal oxide. The layered alkali metal polysilicate can include sodium salts such as makatite, ilerite, magadiite, and kenyaite. The metal oxide can include titanium oxide, iron oxide and the like. The pearl pigment preferably has an average particle size of 2-200μm and an average thickness of 0.01-5μm. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
