Hainan is a major center for the extraction of genuine high-quality pearls in China. It was here that pearls were harvested for the emperor. Durability, luster, and a variety of colors distinguish the local mineral.
It is widely recognized that the very best pearls are extracted from the South China Sea, which washes the island, so it is not surprising that this trade is traditional for Hainan.
The Jingrun Museum has six halls with a total area of 4 thousand square meters, where curious and rare exhibits of this group are presented. There is also a pearl plantation here, where visitors are introduced to the process of pearl extraction. The institution's staff will also tell you about ways pearls are used not only in jewelry making, but also in medicine and cosmetology. The museum was created by the largest organization specializing in pearl extraction and processing - Jingrun.
The museum shop offers a wide range of pearl jewelry, as well as cosmetic and medicinal products based on natural essences. The unique shimmering product supplied by the underwater world is the pride and hallmark of China along with tea and silk, and Hainan holds a leading position in the country in exporting this precious gem to nearby and distant foreign countries.
