According to the Thai media “Thethaiger”, the 53-year-old Thai woman Wasana revealed that she bought 5 kilograms of crustaceans from a seafood vendor in the market at the end of last year and took them home to cook soup and dipping sauce with rice. She did not expect to eat them. Halfway through, I suddenly found a round gray-white object hidden in a shell.

She said that she immediately thought it might be a pearl, and took it with her when she was on a business trip to Bangkok. She sent it to the National Gem and Jewelry Research and Development Institute for examination. Finally, it was inspected by the gem testing laboratory and the R&D department and the pearl was discovered. It is a real pearl weighing 6.8 carats, and it is a natural and rare Merlot pearl.

Merlot pearls are one of the rarest pearls in the world. They are natural and cannot be cultivated artificially. They are mainly distributed in Southeast Asia and Vietnam. Their luster is similar to conch pearls. Typical colors are yellow, orange, red, tan, and brown.

Vasana also expressed that she was very happy that this pearl may be quite valuable. She also said that the financial burden is heavy and she needs to spend a lot of money recently, so she is considering selling the pearl.
