Pearl culture..
To meet the commercial demand, pearls are cultivated with the help of human intervention. This practice is known as pearl culture.
Pearl culture involves a mantle graft implementation technique, using which a grain of sand is inserted between the mantle and shell of an oysters body at the right time.
Gradually, the grain develops as a pearl which takes about three to six years to reach to its full size.
In this way, large pearls can be obtained at a commercial scale.
These pearls are known as cultured or artificial pearls..
