Latest News

There has been some recent promising work done out of Florida Atlantic University that has resulted in success in some seeding methods. However, commercial cultivation seems to be far down the road. Therefore, they are extremely rare and valuable. Although estimates vary, it is commonly believed that only one in 10,000 conchs produce a pearl and that less than 10 percent of these are of gem quality. Collectors depend on fisherman to collect the pearls as a by product of the Queen Conch. With the increasing decline of the conch population and at the first mention of C.I.T.E.S. fishing guidelines, the pearls are becoming harder to come by. This enhances and increases their value and makes it a great time to invest in conch pearls. Many world class jewelers are creating their designs using these rare, natural conch pearls.
