The arrival of Pearls in Hyderabad:

Let's talk about how Hyderabad became a hub for Pearl business. The presence of pearls increased during the time of Qutub Shahi kings, while they announced their patronage with Asaf Jahi's, who always had a knack for pearls. So, dating back to the lavish lifestyles of Nizams, they always had an eye for craftsmanship in jewellery. Taking this as a cue to make some penny, merchants from across India made their way to the city. This event made Hyderabad a pearl city of India. In addition to their beauty, pearls are also crushed and powdered for their healing and beautifying traits.

Mir Osman Ali Khan, the last Nizam of Hyderabad, used to have sacks of pearls in the basement of his palaces.

Once the pearls are drilled, they're boiled, chemically treated, and exposed to the sun. This process takes about 4-5 days by the time they are washed and separated according to their shape and size.
