Pearls Cultured
February 11th, 2010
Do they have to kill the oyster to obtain the CULTURED pearl?
Thanks to everyone who answered my question about whether or not the oyster has to be killed to get the pearl, but does the same go for cultured pearls?
Shame on you Ritchie. haha Actually the answer is no. They will actually remove the pearl and insert new “material” so they grow a new one. They used to use sand but now I think they came up with something to get more uniformed result.

The World Market for Unworked Cultured Pearls $325 This report was created for strategic planners, international executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for unworked glass in balls, rods, or tubes excluding microspheres less than 1 mm in diameter. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics that appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for unworked glass in balls, rods, or tubes excluding microspheres less than 1 mm in diameter for those countries serving the world market via exports or supplying from various countries via imports. I do so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models. |
