Process of Nucleating Pearls for Cultured Pearls

Process of Nucleating Pearls for Cultured Pearls

Nucleating pearls create cultured pearls by using a mother of pearl bead for saltwater or a piece of mantle tissue for freshwater pearls; then stored over time in either saltwater or freshwater depending on the species of pearl. This process makes the classic pearl much more affordable by creating a larger supply of pearls.
