Hainan oysters yield lustrous pearls

Environmental monitoring has confirmed that the seawater quality and density in the waters of Changjiang Li autonomous county, Hainan province, are ideal for Pinctada maxima cultivation. Additionally, the region's relatively enclosed nature shields it from external environmental fluctuations, while stable water currents further promote oyster growth and pearl formation.

Thanks to the high-quality marine environment of the province, these mollusks have been successfully cultivated, yielding hundreds of lustrous pearls.

According to the latest official figures, more than 500 pearls have been produced in the county since 2021, with the largest pearl reaching a diameter of 14 millimeters.
