(Digby, Nova Scotia, Canada)

I was born and raise in Digby, Nova Scotia. My family has been Scallop Fishermen for generations. I started at the age of 13 and now I am 33 of age. I have been collecting scallop pearls for years, I am still a scallop fisherman and was just out a week ago and found 50 scallop pearls. We have a fishing area that the vessels go to ever summer which is know as Area #29, and last year in 4 weeks I have collect 14,000 scallop pearls, I have been selling my pearls to a local market. Scallop's pearls comes in various shapes and sizes. Some sizes very are unique in shape. Some even are very long in shape..I have also sold a few pearls across the internet. Again, I have been collecting pearls for a very long time..I will always have them, I have some that are 7kt. round, different colors from grey&white, white&brown, butterscotch, brown&golden, snow white, clear white, black and the pearls is one of the rarest in the world and one of the most precious pearls in the world...
