In India, the god Krishna is said to have plucked the first pearl from the sea for his daughter's wedding jewelry.

The Roman Emperor Vitellius financed an entire military campaign by selling his mother's earrings (hopefully with her permission). Pearls were found clutched in the hands or hanging from the ears and necks of the dead at Pompeii and Herculaneum. In Japan, traditional Ama pearl hunters dive 30 feet without breathing equipment—as they have for the past 2,000 years!

Pearls are the gemstone for the western Zodiac sign Cancer, the month of June, and the third wedding anniversary.
