World Largest Recorded Pearl in the world
On May in 1934 a scuba diver found worldead largest pearl in Philippines. The pearl of Lao Tzu also referred as Pearl of Allah was considered as world largest natural gaint pearl.This pearl was found 10 years ago in Palawan sea, which surrounds the island of Palawan in the Philippines by scuba diver who was unaware of its value and kept it as good luck charm.This pearl is about 1feet (9.45 inches) in diameter and 2.2 feet long and weight about 6.4 kilograms.
While biologists would regard this object as a form of pearl, gemologists regard it as a non-nacreous pearl, lacking the opalescence of the pearls that come from marine water pearl oysters and freshwater pearl mussels. Due to its nice size, massive clam will produce an awfully large pearl, however not an iridescent, gemlike one. The Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and CIBJO currently simply use the term "pearl" once bearing on such things, instead of the term "calcareous concretion" and, under U.S. Federal Trade Commission rules, numerous shellfish pearls is also named as "pearls" while not qualification.
Gemologist Michael Steenrod in Colorado has valued the pearl at $60,000,000 and $93,000,000. Another 1982 appraisal, by Lee Sparrow who closely-held a gem laboratory and appraisal business within the Phelan Building in san francisco, put the pearl at $42,000,000. In America, the pearl was exhibited at the Ripley's Odditorium in Newyork, valued at $35,000,000.The Palawan patrician, a five-pound non-nacreous pearl then thought of the second largest, was offered at auction by Bonhams and Butterfields of los angeles on December six, 2009. calculable to fetch between $300,000 to $400,000, it passed unsold.
