The Romans are notably the craziest people over pearls. This is marked by specific times in Roman history when pearls played the central part. The most celebrated of these is the banquet in Cleopatra's hall.
To convince Mark Antony that Egypt is above conquest,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], she showcased her land's wealth and heritage by giving the most expensive dinner in all history. During the said dinner,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Queen Cleopatra crushed a piece of a large pearl from a pair of pearl earrings. She dissolved the pearl in a goblet of wine or vinegar and drank the liquid down. This account ended with Mark Antony declining the dinner and the matching pearl earring. He then gave the admittance that the queen won.
The popularity of pearls rose at the height of the Roman era. On one account by Suetonius, he mentioned that the General Vitellius sold a single pearl earring and used the money to finance an entire roman army campaign.
The Romans are the craziest with regards to pearls but the Arabs have the deepest love for the gem. This affection over the pearl is evident in the Koran,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], especially in the section where the Paradise is being described.
All these craze on pearls had run down in history due to the gem's rarity. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], by the turn of the century, pearls became practically a common jewelry. Most present users actually no longer appreciate the values of their pearl necklaces,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], pearl earrings and the likes. This is brought forth by the mass production that has revolutionized the status of the most valued gem.
The great irony in the most glorified gem is that even the lesser priced cultured pearl rivals the quality of the most expensive natural pearl there is. In a sense, its value was lost over the "synthetically" produced pearls. Though this became a very welcomed source of the rare pearls, this resulted to unfair treatment of the once exulted gem.
The major manufacturers of these cultured pearls are Japan and China. Kokichi Mikimoto developed a technique of producing the gem "on demand". But while he painstakingly created his methods,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Tatsuhei Mise and government biologist Tokichi Nishikawa independently created the similar process of pearl culturing.
Chinese producers adopted their methods,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the 1970s astounded the world with the immense number of literally "cheap" pearls. Thus the coming of relatively cheap pearl earrings, necklaces, pendants and other pearl accessories.
The glory has ended and new trends of pearl production have arrived. So what's in store for pearls now?
