- South Sea pearls are the largest cultured-pearl variety, sometimes reaching over 20 millimeters in diameter. The Pinctada maxima oyster can take up to five years to produce a single South Sea pearl, whereas more common freshwater oysters can take as little as three months and create dozens of pearls. This long cultivation process makes South Sea pearls rarer - and more expensive. A single South Sea pearl can cost $1,500, and a necklace can reach over $200,000. So, how are these pearls grown? And what makes them so expensive?

Why South Sea Pearls Are So Expensive | So Expensive | Business Insider
When you consider it took 9 years to collect the pearls for that one necklace, 36,000 is basically stealing.
She not only make one necklace.
yeah 9 years for that, but she is not only make one neckless in 9 years isnt it 🤔
@@user-pr4vf2lp4k He's talking about the last necklace
The expression is, “it’s a steal”. Stealing does not mean the same. It’s a crime.
@@EliF-ge5bu no I did actually mean to say “stealing” albeit in a hyperbolic way. I mean dang the woman spent 9 YEARS on those pearls she should have been paid far more.
My mom found a purple pearl in an oyster she was eating and they valued it at like $750
damn, that's awesome. if I was a cook serving oysters, I would definitely check them for pearls! xD
That’s why any seafood festival should have a moneylender or something. If someone slurps down a raw oyster, someone should be right there to take the Pearl off their hands for some up-front cash.
My sister and her best friend at the time had oysters together and the both found a pearl a little less than 1/4 inch, one of them was a purple pearl
They are rare
Wow

As a native Indonesian, the translation is quite off. The farmer said that they cleaned the oyster of moss, dirt, bacteria, and worms. They didn't talk about snails or insects.
Thank you for letting us know!
i heard as well "lumot". in Filipino, this also means moss
They did in the beginning. They mentioned poisonous snails preventing them from eating.

Thank you! It was weird seeing them say snails and insects when I see moss, dirt etc
A lot of people love the classic pearly whites, but I love the pinkish tint ones like in 5:40. Even better if it's misshapen and made into an assymetrical jewellery!
I have a string set of pink hue pearls from my great grandmother. The imperfect shapes and slightly pink shine is so unique. Need to get them restrung.
Yeah those look beautiful
Honestly misshapen ones to me seem more realistic being that there is misshapen ones instead of perfectly round like the fake plastic junk

I’m the same way! I could honestly care less about the color but I prefer the misshapen ones.
This is really interesting to me. I work with pearls as a designer but there is a lot that I learned in this video. For example, I didn't realize that pearls could be reshaped and shined like that. And I didn't realize that the nucleus was as big as it is. I wonder if I could learn to shape and buff some of my pearls that have flaws.
Id say practice with low grade pearls.
The thing I'm concerned about is the outer layer being shaven. Is that lacquer or natural oils that give pearls their luster?
I bought my neice one of the cheaper pearl necklaces under $100.
@@ericolens3 Yeah, definitely I would try on a low grade pearl first. I always thought that the shine was from an unblemished outer layer of nacre. And that it couldn't be fixed in any way. But theoretically that nacre goes all the way to the nucleus. So theoretically I could polish a scratched or misshapened pearl the same way I polish metal. Though my equipment is different than theirs.
Dont support this cruel practise. How would you like to be poked and prodding at, purposely hurt to produce a pearl, then go through it again each time.
Culturing involves surgically opening each oyster shell and inserting an irritant in the oyster. Freshwater pearls are cultured by inserting another oyster’s mantle tissue. Saltwater pearls have beads and another oyster’s mollusk tissue inserted. Fewer than half of the oysters may survive this process.
Cultivators further stress the oysters by suspending them in water in a cage, washing their shells, moving them around in different waters, and raising and lowering their cages to subject them to changing water temperatures.
After the pearls are extracted from the oysters, one-third of oysters are “recycled” and put through the culturing process again. The others are killed and discarded
Lower quality pearls you can pearl back the nacre layers to expose nacre with better luster
As an Indonesian, I am happy to see that local people in Lombok can make the most of their natural wealth. With this video, I hope the Ministry of Home Affairs can open their eyes about state assets in Lombok, apart from the Mandalika GP circuit, to be developed with assistance in the form of education or investment.
I hope so too, God bless.

You know what on Mandalika GP, they invited many middle and small business to make exclusive merchandise and most of them failed to sell anything and suffering from great loss because there is certain minimum quantity that needed to be stocked there. I've met a pearl jeweller from Lombok telling me all of this. The problem is you are not allowed to sell those exclusive merchandise outside Mandalika GP and the government didn't do anything about this.
My mother has a pearl necklace grown in the shape of a cross, which a Chinese family of pearl farmers made by inserting a cross shaped base.
Shouldn’t that be more common and sell ooh😮 that actually sound pretty awesome !!!
The import of the precursor is what they will always use to control the cost and value of the pearls. If they increase production, then the price gets driven down because they aren't nearly as rare.

Baroque pearls. Delish!
Those are called baroque pearls
Interesting. Maybe I will start using some of my more iregular shaped pearls in my designs then. I'm seeing comments everywhere here that people prefer the Baroque pearls. Nearly all of mine are. But I usually pick out the smoothest ones to use.
One of my favourite analogies is the oyster and the pearl. It secretes a solution around something foreign, as its unable to expel it. So even if we struggle with a problem, if we act kindly and positive with the situation, we can turn it into a pearl, which will say a lot about us :D
sango pearls

Boba pearls... Love it in my milk tea
I like that, thanks for sharing
Seems like the problem that turns into pearl, not us.. We are the oysters, remember?
I actually prefer wonkier pearls myself. There's something appealing about them to me. Like, a reminder that this is a natural object, a real one of a kind.
Also, can't they produce their own nuclei in Indonesia? I assume they're just rounded mussel shell, right? Or, does having the more expensive Japanese nuclei contribute to their appeal for some people? Either way, I can definitely see why these are so expensive.
nah, you just can't afford the round pearls.
Lack of support I guess, they probably don't know how to produce these nuclei and no one studying it yet.
Japan is the origin of the oyster farming for pearls. So I guess the owner wants it to be as high quality as it gets.
I also like "wonkier" pearls.
@@cyantn1634 actually the vast majority of pearls including these are not natural, because they contain a fake core. for the cheapest freshwater pearls, I think they use plastic balls that only get a millimeter or two of nacre coating, and in this case they use mussel shells, which are a similar material to oyster pearls, but still fake filler material and made round and big to give the pearls a big headstart in growing big and round. until a few hundred years ago, all pearls were natural, grown around randomly implanted grains of sand or shell. natural pearls only occur in a small percentage of oysters, fewer per oyster, they take a lot longer to reach the same size because their original core is very small, and they are much less likely to be round due to the lack of a round core as a starting point and the lack of manual turning of the oyster. nowadays, pearls are checked I think with x-rays to show wether they are made of concentric layers of nacre all the way to the center and thus natural, in which case they are far more expensive due to their rarity. plastic cores are certainly easy to identify, whereas these mussel shell cores may be an attempt to fool testing equipment with a similar density to oyster nacre. though I think there probably are ways to identify the lack of concentric layering. but at least the weight of the pearl will be convincing, as opposed to pearls with plastic cores.
Dang, only 36,000? I figured they were missing a zero somewhere considering that process.
36000 where she lives is like 120k In the US. Equivalent
@@JayyJay92 even so, she said that took 7 years to piece. She probably has multiple pieces being worked on at a time i imagine though.
I really hope this reaches some gov officials who actually care about the people and get them to support these local businesses either by giving them more chances to get better deals, more resources and or thru financial help. These people deserve more support from the country themself so that more locals develop interest in working with or for other locals
I Had NO IDEA! I own a very large South Sea Pearl ring surrounded by Diamonds! It was very expensive and I LOVE IT! So interesting to hear the background! Thank you
I always find it fascinating how they do ocean farming like this. The oysters look natural, as if they live in the sea when they are in the lab yet they aren’t; the oysters have algae and other microbes growing on them the same as if they were growing in the ocean. So interesting
Same as normal farming.

These videos are always so interesting I love this channel
Same
That necklace has about 45 pearls and only cost $36k which means each pearl is less than $800. That’s still a lot for each. I wonder how much the guy sells his to the lady for it. The pearls are expensive because of its scarcity, increasing supply will bring down its cost
it's supposed to be sold in auction house
That necklace has way, way more than 45 pearls in it, just the outer one has more than 60 in it, and there are 3 strands. Probably over 150 pearls in total.
You think increasing the supply of luxury jewelry makes it cheaper? Someone’s never heard of lab-grown diamonds lol
Mikimoto makes cultured pearls, thus increasing supply (at least for them), but they still cost as much as buying a tiny car.
@@gaphic you think increasing the supply of something wouldn’t bring the price down? Somebody doesn’t understand supply and demand
I worked in a fine jewelry store for a while and sold an incredibly beautiful and expensive Tahitian black pearl ring that was several thousand dollars.
While I love pearls, my favorites are the cheaper freshwater variety, because I love those imperfections and differences of color.

Amazing. Such painstaking care and dedication.
Good video thanks for sharing
Fascinating, very informative.
This is just amazing, thanks for sharing..
I've always found it interesting how pearls are essentially made by an oysters immune response
Very informative piece. I never thought the irritants/nuclei were that size or perfectly shaped. Beautiful Indonesian scenery. I wonder how the price would change when it is a naturally occurring pearl. What happens to oysters after the pearl is harvested? Is climate change and warmer waters affecting the quality and quantity of cultured pearls?
they become food
It is mentioned that naturally occurring pearls are heavily deformed. So they fetch a lower price. After 3 harvests, the oyster usually dies.
Nuclei are often sourced from shells of sacrificed mussels, so they can cut the nuclei to certain specifications (obviously limited by thickness of shell from sacrificed mussel). It's a pretty wasteful, but quick and relatively consistent process
Yes, climate change, hot temperature makes the water acidic due to release of ions so the shells not just from mollusk but also other sea species like corals have thinner calcium framework.
@@whitepouch0904 You know, now that you you state this, I have noticed that the seashells that I have found on the beach close to a high traffic water area are thin, smaller, not too colorful, and easily breakable. I'm attributing this to the high water pollution levels. I am assuming water pollution plays a role as well. Thank you for answering. Take care.
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Great work 🥳 Thhhank you 💜
So educative to watch.
A pearl is one of the most literal sense's of "A other's trash is another mans treasure"
imagine buying white marbles for thousands of dollars.
I need to know more about the fully opened oyster, the partially opened oyster, and the nuclei
Very informative and inspiring video.
Just so we're clear, pearls form when oysters get sharp things stuck inside their privates.
And we can grow them in a lab using bacteria, so there's zero reason to do this or to charge such high prices.
@@CRneu no
I just can’t help but feel sad for the oysters that have to die :(

@@fidelcatsro6948 At least the oyster isn’t going to die in vain then, it will feed someone who likes oyster meat (not me) :)
@@CATsissta rich in zinc and many other trace minerals!!
And they are restricted in a net in their life, can't moving
Well, either these farmed oysters die in this farm or their wild brethren will get hunted to extinction just for the wild pearl.
It's basically the struggle of modern farming and the push to limit/abolish it, some enviromentalist doesn't realize that if you abolish farms, the problem of the greed that causes it doesn't go away.
And oysters doesn't move much anyway so unlike farmed mammals, the outrage of oysters getting chained in nets are laughable.
So interesting ❤ looks like an art 👍🏼
I got my south sea pearl ring from Lombok last year. It is my favorite ring. From the farmer i heard that the value is not from the shape, even fresh water or sea pearl have weighten the value.. but the first value firstly seen from the shine against the wall pattern of the pearl
Damn, these pearls are even more expensive than diamonds!!!
Now I know why they are so expensive. I love pearls but I found the baroque ones the most beautiful and those pinky or peachy colored ones to be more eye-catching and appealing.
I'm seeing so many people saying that they prefer Baroque pearls here. That's encouraging to me as a designer because most of my pearls are noticeably Baroque with very few of them without color of some kind.
I think I like the silvery blue ones the best. Though, pink on an otherwise cream pearl can be really pretty, too. 😊
@@anyascelticcreations do you not feel guilty hurting these sea creatures or do you just not care?🤔
@@theecologist10 There is no central nervous system in oysters, thus they are unable to process pain. Just like plants.
@@shuhuitan803 the video said they can feel the irritant though… isn’t that the whole reason it creates the pearl in the first place?

U know I do get what these farmers are going through . Sometime you’re just a small farmer in countries that not as big or popular u do get being take advantage of your hard works . I do believed they can get the support they needs as I myself love pearls ❤️ n seeing their hardworks in produce the pearls make me appreciates pearls even more ❤️
one of the most important factor is the quality of the water, clean, unpolluted, and right warmness
At least they are farming rather than tearing up the whole ocean just for a pearl
Yeah they are trying. Not to ruin the whole ocean
Human labor is one of many factors that make anything expensive 😞
Makes sense. Nobody wants to put time and effort in to get nothing.

@@almostblank4025 there will be no post-scarcity world. What are you smoking. Something will always be rare. Soon it is going to be water and rare earth minerals and we are all going to go to war over them.
do the small oyster make pearls? like that tiny one on the table they kept showing
Thanks lot for sharing this valuable Informations. 🤝❤🌹💐🌻🦁🇱🇰
I once found a black pearl on a sea beach it was small but i thought it to be something else as i was not sure if pearl are ever black but after some year's i was told that it is a very rare find
Kaha dekha aapne
Aap apne pass rakh lete pheka kyu
The color of a pearl is dependent on the shell inside the oyster (mother of pearl). It has a spectrum of colors where some of them will be on the pearl. So a black pearl will likely come from a species of oyster with many dark hues on the mother of pearl. For example black lipped oyster
6:03 growing in plastic... sad to see
A beautiful listen ❤
Tears the oysters gonads.... I wasn't ready for that line!
They probably have a strict import license to stop this type of farming from affecting the environment. I could be wrong but monoculture farming is usually not a good thing.
It's Indonesia, they don't really care about the environment. They rank low on the Environment Performance Index. Not as good as Thailand but better than China.
It's all about the money. He just needs to find the right government official and as "How much."
It's true that monoculture farming generally create more environmental impact but I don't think it's applicable in this case. In this case they provide their own early culture (the one that involves chemical substances) in a lab and not in open water, reproduce their own oyster, and let the later culture happens naturally.
western people are very good at talking about environmental damage, monoculture, deforestation for oil palm, especially in developing countries.
but they pretend to forget or do not really know how their environment is, many arid lands are not greened. they also do monoculture farming, (perhaps monoculture farming there doesn't need to destroy the forest).
and they also pretended to forget who had colonized other countries and caused mischief.
@@brownbee4889 The vast majority of farming in the world is monoculture. What the west tends to have a problem with is driving species to extinction to do it.
@@brownbee4889 speak your truth!!
imo the misshapen pearls should be more expensive because they are more natural. and they also look better
Thats my aunty, riana meilia....i am so happy n proud😍
Fascinating I had no idea
Cool video. Learned about pearls today!
next lesson we learn how to make gold nuggets grow from fish intestines
@@fidelcatsro6948 😂
she sold it for 36k only? should've put it in an auction
I found a giant pearl worth a lot of money. Then this huge Sharp pain on the left side of my face. Old lady wearing the necklace slapped me.
😂
why am so interested in this? nvm CUZ ITS GOOD
I definitely love the sparkle of gems, but I sure love me some pearl essence! Pearls are so beautiful, all the colors, and unique shapes! Being a June baby just makes me love them even more♥️🦪
they need to find out how to make nuclei locally themselves!
nah.
One would think (with admittedly no experience in the pear industry) that creating a new item to use as a "nucleus" for cultured pearls would be possible. Mussel shells are available in many locations around the world....
*always the ans is: it's rare*
(too difficult or time consuming or impossible to produce, limited resource, or not available due to regulations etc is mostly what make things rare)
idk maybe banging on the oysters with knives every month is stressfulf af for them and thats why most of them die
You can buy real pearls from fishermen in the Philippines for 20-30$(that's what I think I paid in 2016/2017) for a full necklace and they are real . But of course they have irregular shapes and you have to buy directly from them..I didn't ask for the prices recently
Let's say the necklace is made of 40 pearls, so each pearl is less than a Dollar. That's extremely cheap. It's either made of fake pearls or low quality freshwater pearls.
@@landove1486 exactly, the only thing we can do to check the pealrs in lab.
@@landove1486 I bought them from a fisherman in a small beach village in the Philippines where I have been living . Not fake as I know how to recognize. Person I think said they were seawater pearls and was even selling some pinctada shells where the pearls apparently grew but if course I cannot know for sure and also I'm not an expert's I can only say they were not fake.. I paid for each necklace probably 20$ which in the Philippines is not cheap anyway. They were not regular pearls that's for sure , I mean the pearls were not perfectly round or at least not all of them
@@purefreedom282 they are real freshwater Pearl
We do have South Sea pearl farms in the Philippines, it's mainly on two areas of the country which originally produce it... Sulu and Palawan... Whilst the culture of Pearl harvesting is older in Sulu, they produce pearls on a smaller scale compared to Palawan, Palawan on the other hand is more successful of the two because of Government backing, and protection and having it on a larger scale... As a side note, the Badjao tribe of Sulu are also known for being the source of natural South Sea Pearls in the Philippines
4:41 "He tears the oyster's gonads,..." 😳
I like pink pearls & black pearls
LESSONS from PEARLS: Once a university student from Kuwait brought me a pearl after her return from the Middle East. Yet surprisingly, she did not know how pearls were made. I shared with her how constant irritation made such a beautiful thing, and how difficulties in our lives can do the same.
An even more meaningful story is of "the pearl of great price," one of the fascinating parables which won Jesus such popularity. In it a pearl is found by a merchant. To get it he sells everything that he has.
There are two interpretations to the parable:
One is that when we see the beauty of living in tune with God and people, we would exchange everything we have to be part of it.
The other is that God loves us so much, we are like a pearl that he gives his best to save. He came to earth to be with and suffer with us. He died for our wrongs, and his resurrection gives us hope of eternal life - the best gift of all!
From 10.000 oysters only 2.500 survives. Why they didn't use nucleus from died oysters for the new ones to expand bussiness?
Because they don't implant a nucleus to all of them, only 25% make it into adulhood and that's when the nucleous is implanted, nothing goes to waste.
@@andreafranco1477 thanks for the explanation
The pearl from French Polynesian it’s so beautiful ❤
That 36000 necklace is dreamy!
Can they not just pipe sea water into a tank of oysters?
I just don't get it at all, $1500 for a pearl when pearls have almost no use outside of maybe paint pigment.
Agreed. Some people like them for jewelry but they're so expensive it's ridiculous.
Bro,if some people have money,that is their rights,so don't say that this is a stupid idea. You have money you get things you want.
I got these pearls from this island, even the regular non high quality beads are absolutely gorgeous, for $100 you can get a nice satin white pearl bracelet
Lombok beach ♥️♥️,these video remind me of my beautiful necklace pearls from lombok island,, my grandma give it to me before she past,,i Will keep until i die ♥️♥️
