Young Black Haired Girl With Long Hair And Blue Eyes Reveals Her Black Pearl Necklace And Skirt On White Bed Sheets

The largest pearl known was found in the Philippines in 1934 and is known as the pearl of Lao Tzu. It is a naturally-occurring, non-nacreous, calcareous concretion (pearl) from a giant clam. Because it did not grow in a pearl oyster it is not pearly; instead the surface is glossy like porcelain. Other pearls from giant clams are known to exist, but this is a particularly large one, weighing 14 lb (6.4 kg).
