Pearls are collected primarily from oysters and certain other mollusks. Divers or pearl farmers locate oyster beds, where they either harvest wild oysters or cultivate oysters in controlled environments. The oysters are then opened to retrieve the pearls, which form as a defense mechanism against irritants. In cultured pearl production, a small irritant is intentionally inserted to stimulate pearl formation.

How many oysters are in a pint depends on the size of the oysters. If they are skinny or small oysters, then a pint can contain about 30. A pint of medium sized oysters can contain 16 to 18. This is about three servings.
The number of oysters in a quart can vary depending on the size of the oysters. On average, a quart of shucked oysters typically contains about 20 to 30 oysters, but this can differ based on whether the oysters are small, medium, or large. If you are looking for whole oysters, a quart may contain around 10 to 15 medium-sized oysters. Always check with local suppliers for more accurate counts based on the specific oysters you're purchasing.
