First Light, Handmade Earrings from The Gulf Coast of Florida with Swarovski Crystals and Pearls
For thousands of years, most seawater Pearls were retrieved by divers working in the Indian Ocean, in areas like the Persian Gulf, the Red Sea, and in the Gulf of Mannar. Starting in the Han Dynasty (206 BC–220 AD), the Chinese hunted extensively for seawater pearls in the South China Sea. In the 14th-century Arabian Sea, the traveler provided the earliest known description of pearl diving by means of attaching a cord to the diver's waist. The value of the pearls in jewelry is determined by a combination of the luster, color, size, lack of surface flaw and symmetry that are appropriate for the type of pearl under consideration. Among those attributes, luster is the most important factor of pearl quality according to jewelers.
