Scottish Pearl Fisheries Decline Since Peak Years
In Scotland, people harvest pearls from freshwater mussels in rivers, with some activity in England and Wales. Historic records claim Scottish pearls rival Orient gems for translucency, valued high in past centuries. A writer notes £20,000 as a mid eighteenth century value and a German syndicate in 1865 bought stones worth £12,000. The industry is not as lucrative now.
