Mikimoto Pearls
Mikimoto Pearls are a type of pearl that are cultivated, and are known for their high quality and perfect round shape. They are the first commercially successful type of cultured pearl, and were developed in 1893 by Mikimoto Kōkichi of Japan. The pearls are created from mollusks in an oyster farm, and are grown in the ocean in the same way that wild pearls are created. They come in various colors and sizes, and are often used in jewelry. The pearls are known for their glossy and shimmering appearance, and for their thick nacre.
