throwback time! "Pearl of the king", visited this giant pearl in 2015, in Boracay island, Philippines. The pearl is owned by a Chinese-Filipino businessman, Richard King, chairman of the Crown Regency Hotel in Boracay Island, Aklan, Mr. King inherited the so called biggest pearl from his grandfather as it reportedly came from Palawan sea like the “Pearl of Allah” or popularly known as “Pearl of Lao Tzu/Tze” and is considered as largest known pearl in the world which measures 24 centimeters and weighs 6.4 kilograms. Unfortunately we never had a nice picture of the pearl because of the photobomber fish who sleeps on it during the course of our visit. 2nd photo (right), courtesy of google.
