About our Pearls
Today just about all pearls are "cultured". That is, man has introduced an irritant into the animal to stimulate their natural response of coating the irritant with nacre.
Conversely a natural pearl is the same process but nature introduced the irritant. Contrary to popular belief it was hardly ever a grain of sand but rather parasites and other small water born animals that became trapped in the oyster or mussel that would produce a natural pearl.
Natural pearls are extremely rare and valuable and were the source of the world's pearls before the culturing process was commercially made successful in Japan in the early 1900's. To find a gem quality natural pearl the odds are about 1 in 5000 shell.
