I would like to offer genuine oysters with pearls inside for sale at my store. I want them to be able to choose their oyster, open it, and find their pearl and then pick a jewelry setting to place their pearl into. something unique and different. I DO NOT want the canned ones, I would like bulk oysters
try global sources dot com or Indian baazar
Sorry but the pearl farms are most unlikely to sell the stuffs directly to you.
Moreso, the pearl farms would not find it practical to place a single bead nucleus in akoya or mantle tissue in case of freshwater pearls.
Akoya oysters receive up to 5 bead nucleus at a time while the freshwater mussels receive up to 50 mantle tissues at a time. Meaning, up to 5 pearls come out of a single akoya oyster and up to 50 pearls come out of freshwater mussel upon harvest.
