Japanese Akoya Pearl Farming

1. I wish you sold the pearl in the oyster shell.
2. Akoya pearls are also all bead with a thin nacre on the outside. Freshwater pearls all the way.
3. I have 2 questions:
   1) Is there a standard ratio between the radius of the nucleus bead and the thickness of the nacre?  In another word, how do I know how much "real pearl material" I am buying?
   2) Why don't farmers put in gigantic beads to get gigantic cultured pearls?
4. 6:20 that man's hands are so dexterous.. Real skill
5.  wow they are doing a fabulous job   ♥ يستوي تعطوني عقد واحد بس هههههه مابا زياده أنا راضيه  ^^ "
6. Great video, it's also great to know that nothing goes to waste. 
7. Thank you so much for your hard work.
   I admire my Akoya pearl collection; it is a touch of beauty and grace.
8. wrong music lol
9. A oyster can take years to form a ideal pearl. The workers have to be payed at the farm. The supplies for the farm. The factory workers have to be payed. The export costs for sending them from Japan (if they are sent from Japan). Then they actually have to make a profit.
10. So if you use farms like this to produce pearls, how is their value still high? Wouldn't this decrease their value since there are so many of them?
11. enjoy this video 
12. really educational and informative, i'm glad the oyster wasn't just thrown away and it was used for other purposes.
