The Uwa Sea in Ehime Prefecture is one of Japan's leading pearl production areas. The beautiful rias coast provides an ideal environment for pearl cultivation due to the abundance of plankton, and the seasonal temperature differences give the pearls a beautiful luster. Thanks in part to people's efforts over the years, Ehime has become a pearl cultivation area unparalleled in the world, and pearls from Ehime are highly valued both in Japan and abroad for their high quality.
