00:00This is Pearl Master and his apprentice, Seiji Nuri, and Gankaiko Paola, who have made more than 1.5 billion yen of pearls.
00:10Nice to meet you.
00:15Nice to meet you.
00:22Today, we're going to talk about the charm of Japanese pearls.
00:25I feel like I'm about to be bitten by something weird.
00:30First of all, let me tell you what's going on in the pearl industry right now.
00:35The price of Japanese pearls is now three times higher.
00:39The world's pearl inspection agency's pearl grading system has achieved the highest rank.
00:45It's a little late, but I'm sorry, Paola.
00:49It's a little late, but I'm sorry.
00:51It's like the strongest.
00:54For a long time, the Japanese Pearl Inspection Agency was conducting its own inspection based on its own standards.
01:02In 2021, the World Jewelry Inspection Agency, the GIA, launched a new inspection service for Western Pearls.
01:11Japan's Aqua Pearls have become a hot topic all over the world for their high quality.
01:17Because of that, the popularity of pearls is increasing.
01:22Currently, not only are Japanese pearls a jewel, but also their value as an asset is increasing.
01:30That's why until about five years ago, there was a boom in the purchasing industry.
01:35Even if you bring in a pearl, they won't give you a proper price.
01:39If you bring in a ring, they'll tell you it's 18 gold or plus.
01:43There are a lot of people who've done something wasteful.
01:46There used to be a lot of big rings like this.
01:51There were a lot of people who had 1.2 rings in a row.
01:57They were all beaten up and sold.
02:00If you have it now, it's like you said.
02:02Two or three years ago, for example, if you bought it for 1 million yen, if it was the same thing, it would be 2 million to 3 million yen.
02:10The higher the value, the higher the price.
02:16And why is the quality of Japanese pearls so high?
02:20Here's why.
02:22Because the quality of Japanese pearls is high, and the environment where they grow in the mountains and seas is of the highest quality.
02:30It's surrounded by mountains and seas, and it's surrounded by pearls on the calm Rias Sea.
02:37It's always limited, isn't it?
02:38That's right.
02:40If it's the outside sea, there's the Rias Sea, but it's a calm wave, so you can tell if it's a mountainous area like Ise Island or Uwajima.
02:50And Nagasaki.
02:53Last year, Nagasaki became the top mountainous area.
02:56Oh, Nagasaki was number one?
02:58And for 12 years, Uwajima was at the top.
03:00I feel like I'm going back to Uwajima again.
03:03The three major areas of pearl farming in Japan are Ise Island in Mie Prefecture, Uwajima in Ehime Prefecture, Tsushima in Iegi Prefecture, and Okinawa in Nagasaki Prefecture.
03:15Pearls are a jewel created by living things, so Irie, surrounded by mountains and seas, which are rich in nutrients, grows high-quality pearls.
03:26In addition, the calm waters of the sea are the perfect environment to grow high-quality pearls.
03:39I haven't seen a lot of big pearls lately.
03:43There used to be a lot, right?
03:46I'm really good at it.
03:48There's something amazing about it.
03:50Everyone says the same thing.
03:52Really?
03:53I brought it with me.
03:55Oh, no, no.
03:57I've never sold it.
04:02The world of Japanese pearls that Matsuko doesn't know about.
04:06The last queen of Egypt, Cleopatra, was said to own the world's largest earring of pearls at the time.
04:14Coco Chanel incorporated pearls, which were a proof of power, into fashion.
04:20Such a historical pearl.
04:23In Japan, there is an image that it is worn by the head of a family or a grandmother.
04:29However, such a pearl is now...
04:33There are a lot more fashion and street wear.
04:37Blackpink's Jennie.
04:40Catherine Hee from England and London.
04:43It's cool to have this much volume.
04:46It's definitely cool.
04:47In addition, as a genderless accessory, the popularity of men's pearls has also increased.
04:54For me, in Japan, this is some of the real beauty and purity.
04:59Akoya is truly the best pearl.
05:03Due to the influence of inbound, the Japanese pearl bubble has arrived.
05:09Will you tell us the charm of the world's highest quality Japanese pearl?
05:16It looks good on you.
05:20There are only 100 people in Japan.
05:23Seichi Nuri, who has the title of Pearl Master, and...
05:27Perfect.
05:29Perfect.
05:33Mr. Paula, who quit the gap store and jumped into the world of Japanese pearls, is here tonight.
05:40It's big! Is it that big?
05:43Actually, the color of the pearl is beautiful in the color of the shell.
05:48Does it look like a finger print?
05:51How to distinguish between good pearls and bad pearls.
05:55Here comes Kanake!
05:58Wow, this is really beautiful.
06:03Introducing a rare Japanese pearl that is rarely seen.
06:10How much is it?
06:11Let's put it on.
06:13Let's put it on.
06:15It's beautiful.
06:17I'm glad.
06:19I didn't say I was going to buy it.
06:34Do you know how the pearl is made?
06:37Specifically, I don't know because I'm not used to the feeling of shell.
06:42I'm going to be a shell.
06:44Shut up!
06:48Is that plastic in the shell?
06:53That's a shell of a sea bream caught in Mississippi.
06:56Sea bream?
06:58Sea bream?
07:00Let's show the video.
07:02Uwajima City, Ehime Prefecture, one of the three largest producers of Japanese pearls.
07:07In the past, the harvest of natural pearls was carried out.
07:12The production rate of natural pearls is several grains from 10,000 shells.
07:18Uwajima also started the cultivation of pearls for two years.
07:24In fact, there are mainly six types of shells that can produce beautiful pearls.
07:28Among them, Ako-yagai is the most cultivated in Japan.
07:34Then, how is the pearl cultivation in Japan done in the first place?
07:40Let's go to the pearl cultivation site in Uwajima.
07:44This is really...
07:48Three generations.
07:50Thank you, Mr. Shinji Matsumoto, for showing me.
07:53It's a good place.
07:55He's working on the shell.
07:58This is the scene where the pearl-based shell is put into the shell.
08:03The pearl cultivation starts by putting the beautifully polished round shell into the shell.
08:12Then, cut off the outer membrane of the shell and cut it finely.
08:18After coloring it easily, put it next to the shell.
08:24The outer membrane forms a pearl bag.
08:29Pearl layers grow around the shell and pearls are made.
08:34I can't believe I came up with this.
08:39That's right.
08:41Put the shell into the shell.
08:44When do you start the cultivation?
08:48It starts from spring.
08:50At that time, the temperature is about 18 degrees.
08:53It's the third generation of Shinji Matsumoto.
08:56This is a masterpiece.
08:59From there, the pearl is grown in the sea for about 8 months.
09:04Once a week, the pearl is taken out and the impurities are removed.
09:08There are also times when the pearl dies if it is not cleaned.
09:12After all, there is nothing to do.
09:15Shinji, who has grown for about a year, was shown in particular.
09:20It's not a good thing to eat.
09:24Oh, it's a good ball.
09:27This is a big ball.
09:29This is a good ball.
09:31Can you eat that?
09:33It's delicious.
09:35It's only available in my hometown.
09:37When it comes to the pearl season, people in my hometown buy red sea bream at the supermarket.
09:42I see.
09:44If you simply boil it in salt, you can eat it as sashimi.
09:46I used to love red sea bream.
09:49But I ate too much.
09:51I'm a crab.
09:53I'm a crab.
09:55I'm not talking about food poisoning.
09:58I'm talking about the pearl.
10:00Can you tell me how to choose a pearl?
10:04How to choose?
10:07How to choose a pearl.
10:09In the media and on the Internet, pearls are sold in size and shape.
10:13But what's really important is the shine and the roll.
10:17You can tell by looking at it.
10:19That's right.
10:21The roll is the thickness of the pearl.
10:25In other words, it's the volume part.
10:27A pearl with a thick roll is said to give off a complex and rich glow.
10:33The shine of the pearl is born from the reflection of the surface when the light hits it and the reflection from the inside of the pearl.
10:43The more correct the structure of the cross-section of the pearl is, the deeper the layer of light is absorbed and the complex and beautiful shine is released.
10:53On the other hand, if the pearl layer is uneven, the light will reflect and the beautiful shine will not be born.
11:02It's a masterpiece, so please take a look.
11:05Wow, this is so beautiful.
11:10There are two types of pearls, weak and strong.
11:14Is there such a shining pearl?
11:16Yes, there is.
11:18It's almost like metal.
11:20If you look at it in real life.
11:22If you look at it with a microscope, the surface is like this.
11:24Does it look like a fingerprint?
11:26Yes, it does.
11:28And the pearl that has this fingerprint-like swirl is the shiny pearl.
11:32The weak one is a little messy.
11:36It looks like a Karakuso pattern.
11:38By the way, it would be a lot of money to make this in 80cm by 50cm.
11:45It's about 500 to 700 yen.
11:48Well, I guess so.
11:50Let's go to the next one.
11:51Let's go to the next one.
12:03From now on, we will introduce the four Japanese pearls selected by Mr. Nuri.
12:11Amami.
12:13Amami's Mabegai has a beautiful shell.
12:16It's beautiful, isn't it?
12:18The pearl layer comes out really thin.
12:22But that's a shell, isn't it?
12:24That's a shell.
12:26Actually, the color of the pearl is proportional to the color of the shell.
12:30Wait a minute.
12:32Amami's Mabegai is not beautiful at all.
12:34Is it beautiful if you take it off?
12:36The back side.
12:38Oh, the back side.
12:40I see.
12:41Pearls can be taken off with beautiful shells, right?
12:46Yes, that's right.
12:48Some pearls come out of scallops, but I don't think they are very beautiful.
12:52Oh, they come out of scallops?
12:54Yes, they come out of super scallops.
12:56Mr. Nuri's selection.
12:58The first of the four Japanese pearls that are proud of the world is...
13:03The miracle pearl that was carefully grown in Yaeyama Island, Okinawa Prefecture.
13:07It is a Ryukyu Kurocho pearl that can be taken off from Kurocho.
13:11Mr. Ryukyu made a great effort to grow the first Kurocho pearl in the world.
13:19It takes about three hours by plane from Tokyo to Yaeyama Island, Okinawa Prefecture.
13:25This Kurocho shell lives in the sea at an average water temperature of about 26 degrees.
13:33This is the pearl that can be taken off from the Kurocho shell.
13:36Here it is.
13:40The Ryukyu Kurocho pearl is called a black jewel.
13:46The biggest attraction of the Kurocho shell is that it is colored in red, green, and yellow.
13:54By mixing these three, it becomes a deep black pearl.
14:00This is the Ryukyu Kurocho pearl.
14:03The black is dark.
14:04This is good.
14:06This is the peacock color, which is said to be a good color in Kurocho.
14:10This is the color of a peacock when it spreads its wings.
14:13This is beautiful.
14:15This is beautiful.
14:17This is really fascinating.
14:21It doesn't look like a pachinko ball.
14:24Well done.
14:26The price varies depending on the depth of the color.
14:29Each is 495,000 yen and 550,000 yen.
14:34This is a Japanese pearl with a particularly popular trend color.
14:39This is the only golden pearl in Kagoshima that emits a rich and deep shine.
14:44This is the Amami gold pearl that can be taken off from the Shirocho shell.
14:47The gold one is also beautiful.
14:49Amami Oshima in Kagoshima Prefecture.
14:53The Shirocho shell is farmed there.
14:57The pearl produced by this shell is a natural gold that shines brightly.
15:03This is beautiful.
15:05The biggest feature of this pearl is its size.
15:07This is big.
15:09The Shirocho shell is the largest pearl in the Shinjugai.
15:13It can take 20 mm large pearls.
15:16This is a miracle gold pearl that is farmed in Amami Oshima and Okinawa in Japan.
15:23Please take a look at the real thing.
15:25This is not at the level of Kanake.
15:28Then a terrible thing will come today.
15:30This is a design necklace made of Amami gold.
15:33This is amazing.
15:35This is not inferior to the real gold.
15:37This is a design necklace made of 18 gold.
15:40How much is this?
15:42Let's put it on.
15:44Don't try to test people.
15:47Mr. Matsuko.
15:49This is not Mr. Matsuko.
15:52I really want this.
15:58This is wonderful.
16:01This is wonderful.
16:03I didn't say I wanted to buy this.
16:08This is gorgeous even if you put it on casually.
16:12Pearl jewelry has no bitterness.
16:14By the way.
16:17I made this when I didn't have money.
16:22Thank you very much.
16:24This is 5 million yen.
16:31There are many colorful pearls in the world that have been artificially colored.
16:39Next, I would like to introduce the Japanese pearl that uses the color of the material itself.
16:47I would like to introduce the beauty of the pearl I saw from a foreigner.
16:51The charm of Japanese pearls seen from foreigners.
16:54Pearls are the only unprocessed jewels that are produced from living things.
17:00The color of the material and the color of the pearl are the world's top class.
17:06This is my favorite pearl.
17:09Unprocessed natural color.
17:12Natural blue that can be obtained from Akoyagai.
17:15Natural purple that can be obtained from Ikechogai.
17:18Both are made in Japan.
17:21It's a color that really came out of the shell.
17:24Japan's Akoyagai pearl boasts the world's highest production volume.
17:29In this pearl, organic matter is formed.
17:34Pearls that look like blue are born.
17:37That is this natural blue.
17:41In the past, the blue color was often removed when it was stained.
17:48Now, the natural color is a popular rare pearl.
17:52Next, the natural purple that can be obtained from Ikechogai.
17:56Natural purple.
17:58Ibaraki Prefecture Kasumigaura, Japan's largest pearl producer.
18:03Ikechogai is grown in the lake.
18:09This is the natural pearl of Ikechogai grown in the lake.
18:18Natural color. Kasumigaura sand pearl.
18:21I answered that the color of the shell is a pearl.
18:24Ikechogai is the only one that produces this color.
18:28I would like you to see this real thing.
18:31After this.
18:33I'm going to go with the price.
18:41Machiko, do you buy a pearl?
18:44It may be good.
18:46The shell is produced.
18:49The natural color is used.
18:51The natural pearl is in the studio.
18:53I'm going to buy more.
18:55I'm going to buy a lot.
18:57I'm going to buy a lot.
18:59I'm going to buy a lot.
19:02Whichever is fine.
19:04Are you going?
19:06I'm going to buy it.
19:08I'm scared.
19:10The miracle blue that was born by chance.
19:12Natural blue taken from Akoyagai.
19:18Kasumigaura's Ikechogai produces the natural purple.
19:24Natural blue.
19:26This may be a color called natural gray.
19:29This is a blue color.
19:31This is a very beautiful blue like aquamarine.
19:35This is among them.
19:37I look good in blue.
19:39Actually.
19:41Natural blue is the color of the shell.
19:45It is rare to be able to guide you so far.
19:52I was surprised.
19:55It was a face I didn't expect.
19:59What should I do with this?
20:02By the way, this is a little expensive.
20:06Wait a minute.
20:08This is a little expensive.
20:10Is it more expensive than that?
20:13It's not 6 million yen, but it's close to that.
20:18By the way, Kasumigaura.
20:21I'm going to go to Kasumigaura depending on the price.
20:26If Kasumigaura becomes a brand, it's really expensive.
20:32But it's 1.5 million yen.
20:36Be careful.
20:38I will be careful.
20:40Wait a minute.
20:42I'm addicted to this.
20:44I feel that 1 million yen is cheap.
20:47I buy this every time.
20:53This is natural purple.
20:55This is also good.
20:57I will make it a little longer.
20:58This is fast.
21:03This is a very attractive color.
21:06However, I think blue suits the color of the face.
21:09I often say that the color around the face is like the effect of a reflector.
21:14But blue is brighter.
21:16I think the color of the skin suits people with white or black skin.
21:22The key to choosing a pearl is whether it matches the color of your skin.
21:28Pearls and people's skin are not the same color.
21:32It is important to judge by wearing them.
21:35I sometimes wear it at the same time at the store.
21:40I think it suits me.
21:43This combination suits you.
21:46It may be good.
21:48It's not good.
21:59Finally, I will show you the most shocking Japanese pearl I have ever met.
22:08This is a special offer.
22:11I bought it.
22:15This is amazing.
22:18This is a special offer.
22:22Finally, I will show you the most shocking Japanese pearl I have ever met.
22:32This is a special offer.
22:34This is a special offer.
22:37This is 0.04%.
22:40This is the most expensive pearl.
22:45This is a special offer.
22:47This is impossible.
22:49I'm sorry.
22:51Most of the items certified as special offers are sold out.
22:57So I can only show you the items I bought recently.
23:03This is 0.04%.
23:06The serial number is all set.
23:08Special Pearl is a pearl professional team.
23:1210 judges of the pearl team are selected every year.
23:17The quality standard of the pearl is the best.
23:29The final certification is based on the approval of the majority of the judges.
23:35The approval rate is said to be 0.04%.
23:42Here is the pearl.
23:45It's an easy job today.
23:48Is this the only pearl?
23:51I will ask the pearl technician to attach it.
23:53I will bring this to the front.
23:56I will attach it to Mr. Matsuka.
23:59It's beautiful.
24:02This is a special pearl, but it's a little longer.
24:08It's completely different.
24:11It's hard for me to say the price.
24:15I don't think it's that expensive.
24:18Is it cheap?
24:20It's expensive.
24:21It's a special pearl.
24:25It's a TV show, so can I ask you?
24:31It's about 3.5 million yen.
24:33I feel cheap.
24:35Do you feel cheap?
24:37The size is different.
24:41It's a little small, but it's expensive.
24:46It's expensive.
24:49I won't buy it.
24:52Are you stupid?
24:55It's different.
24:58This is a Japanese pearl.
25:03This is an Australian pearl.
25:06It's all a ring.
25:09How much is this?
25:11It's cheap, so it's 20 million yen.
25:14I want to hang it on my neck.
25:19I don't have a metal fitting.
25:22Is this enough?
25:24It looks good on you.
25:26It doesn't look good on you.
25:28It looks good on you.
25:30It looks good on you.
25:32I like big pearls.
25:34I have to be this big.
25:36I have to be this big.
25:38Even if the pearl is small, it's great when it's a group.
25:43I prepared one.
25:50It's better than a piano.
25:52It's a little heavy because I use this much.
25:58It looks good on you.
26:00It looks good on you.
26:05Don't be fooled.
26:07Pearls are scary.
26:09Perfect.
26:11Perfect.
