Luxury With A Mission
Going beyond the glamour of pearls, Pearl FALCO aims to raise awareness about the challenges faced by the pearl farming industry due to climate change. Over 80% of Akoya pearl oysters are affected by rising ocean temperatures and extreme weather events. To address this, Pearl FALCO launched “The PEARL Plant-A-Tree Project,” a crowdfunding initiative to plant trees, support reforestation, and tackle climate change.
Maiko Makito, Co-Owner of Pearl FALCO, expresses passion for this initiative, stating, “The PEARL Plant-A-Tree Project is our way of giving back to nature, a vital part of our heritage during this festive season.”
Sustainability is at the core of Pearl FALCO’s practices, ensuring that all parts of the pearl farming operation, including non-jewelry quality pearls, oyster shells, and flesh, are repurposed for various goods.
