Pearl Diver: Science and Diversion
Welcome pearl aficionados!
This newly-named Forum invites deeper “Dives” into the whys and wherefores of the pearl production process, be it natural or cultured.
It may get technical at times, at others unabashedly esoteric.
No question or comment is out of bounds as long as it relates to pearls. Contributions and advice from members, the pearl trade, and the pertinent specialties of Marine and Material Sciences are most welcome.
Curiosity is the Pearl Diver’s mantra!
