Natural pearls are formed when an irritant, often a parasite, gets inside an oyster, mussel, or clam. In response, the mollusk secretes a fluid called nacre, which coats the irritant layer by layer, thus forming a pearl.The Pinctada maxima oyster, native to the Indian and Pacific Oceans, is the largest pearl-producing oyster, and it produces South Sea pearls, which are the largest in the world.Cultured pearls are created by human intervention. This involves introducing an irritant into the mollusk to stimulate the pearl production process.Pearls can naturally occur in a variety of colors, including white, black, grey, pink, and blue. The color of a pearl can be influenced by the type of mollusk and the water conditions in which it grows.China is the world's largest producer of cultured freshwater pearls. The country has been able to produce them in large quantities due to advancements in pearl farming techniques.'Baroque' is a term used to describe pearls that have irregular or non-spherical shapes. These shapes can range from minor aberrations to distinctly ovoid, curved, pinched, or lumpy shapes.According to legend, Cleopatra dissolved a pearl in vinegar and drank it to prove to Marc Antony that she could host the most expensive meal ever made.Tahitian pearls, which are grown in French Polynesia, are known for their unique dark color. Though known as 'black pearls', they also come in shades of gray, blue, green, and purple.The quality of a pearl is determined by several factors including its size, color, luster (surface quality), and shape. Other factors such as nacre thickness and the absence of surface flaws are also considered.Mother of pearl is the iridescent inner layer of a mollusk shell. It's the same material that coats the irritant to form a pearl within the mollusk. It's often used in jewelry and decoration.Seed pearls are small, round pearls that are typically less than 2mm in diameter. They were very popular in Victorian jewelry, and are now often used in intricate, delicate designs.The time it takes for a pearl to form varies depending on the type of pearl, but generally, it can take from several months to many years. For instance, a South Sea pearl can take between 2 and 3 years to fully form.The Hope Pearl is the largest saltwater pearl ever discovered. The size of a pigeon's egg, it is valued at approximately $350,000.Mabe pearls, also known as blister pearls, are half-pearls that have been cultured specifically to grow against the inside of the oyster's shell rather than within its body tissues.The term 'orient' is used to refer to the luster of a pearl. This iridescence is caused by the interference and diffraction of light passing through the layered nacre of the pearl.Sait 0/15Sait 1/15Sait 2/15Sait 3/15Sait 4/15Sait 5/15Sait 6/15Sait 7/15Sait 8/15Sait 9/15Sait 10/15Sait 11/15Sait 12/15Sait 13/15Sait 14/15Sait 15/15
