Okay, sad to know since I was actually excited that I might have found a natural pearl. Anyways thankyou.
Just sharing a few pictures of my other cultured half round pearls which are in progress (it's been 13 months since we started the farming). Hope it will develop in another 6 months.

It's likely natural, but in a cultural setting. Always interesting nonetheless. This type of pearl is common on my operation and I'd expect you'll see many more over the years.

Congratulations on your successes and I'm hopeful these continue.

Nope. But we belong to the same state.
I have not made my farm very public yet since my pearls are not yet completely ready and I am still experimenting.

Thank you for your kind words.

And thanks to all of you. It was nice to be able to showcase this in the forum and get your feedback. Nice experience. I will keep you updated once my pearls get ready and seek your inputs.
