Chinese pearls shine on world stage
Jun 28 - The eastern Chinese city of Zhuji hopes to become the biggest international production and distribution hub for artificially cultivated pearls
The advantage of cultivation is that the process can produce many more pearls than its natural saltwater counterparts.
Farmers say an artificially cultivated oyster can produce 30 to 40 more pearls, compared to just a handful of pearls from a oyster found in the wild.
