Where Do Pearls Come From?

The video explains the uniqueness of pearls compared to other gemstones. Unlike gemstones formed by geological processes, pearls are created by oysters in the ocean. When a foreign object gets trapped in an oyster's shell, it coats it with nacre, forming a pearl. Pearls vary in size, shape, and color and are rare because not all oysters produce them. The video also discusses the rarity and discovery of pearls, sometimes found accidentally. Viewers are encouraged to engage by asking questions.
