Cultured Pearl Information
Cultured pearl is formed with the help of humans. To make a pearl, a skilled technician inserts one or more nuclei into a mollusk. The mollusk is then returned to the water where the nuclei act as irritants and trigger the mollusk to secret nacre around the nucleus. Pearls are generally harvested after 18 months to 3 years after nucleation.
Cultured pearl is grown inside oysters and mollusks in the same way as natural pearl. The only difference is that while natural pearls occur randomly in nature, cultured pearls are created when a pearl farmer deliberately injects an irritant into the oyster. Cultured pearls require the same type of care as natural pearls.
Different types of cultured pearls and pearl terms include Akoya Pearl, South Sea Pearl, Tahitian Pearl, freshwater pearl, mabé pearl, blister pearl, and keshi pearl.
