Cultured Pearl

Cultured pearls are formed through the intentional insertion of a bead or piece of tissue into a mollusk, which is then coated with nacre. The process of growing cultured pearls requires human intervention and care, and most mollusks used for culturing are raised specifically for that purpose.
