What is the difference between natural pearls and cultured pearls?
Natural and Cultured pearls are both natural pearls, meaning that they were formed inside a living creature, the mollusc. Natural pearls were formed by nature alone, whereas Cultured pearls were formed by farming mollusc and implanting little nuclei artifically inside the mollusc as a catalyst for producing a pearl. Typically, cultured peals are called “natural cultured pearls”.
