Pearl farming in Tahaa, French Poly.


Visiting a pearl farm, amazing to see how they seed the shells, and string them all together and then put them back in the water for a couple of years to produce more pearls.  They can do this three times with each shell.  The varieties are so different.

Extracting the pearl and replacing it with a substitute.


Sorting and sizing the pearls.
