PEARLS

For the priceless gem it is, that which ensnares the human heart with its quite charm and radiance, the pearl has a very humble origin. It is formed inside sea animals known as oysters.

The process of pearl formation begins when any irritant particle enters the oyster’s body. Unable to get rid of the particle the oyster secretes NACRE – layers of which form the pearl. There are a variety of pearls – Natural pearls, Cultured pearls and Semi-Cultured pearls. Natural pearls are the ones directly formed in the oyster and usually do not have a perfect shape. Cultured pearls are those pearls which are formed by the insertion of the round irritant particle into the oyster’s body. Natural and Cultured pearls are chiefly used in jewellery. Semi-Cultured pearls are the ones which are made artificially. The basic materials used are plastic, glass  and oyster powder.

Hyderabad soon became a nerve centre of the pearls trade.  Hyderabad today is undoubtedly the largest trading centre for pearls in the world.
