Jacques Cartier: A 100-Year Legacy of Bahraini Pearls (Part I)
Francesca Cartier Brickell, great-granddaughter of Jacques Cartier, explores her family's historic connection to Bahraini pearls spanning over a century. She reflects on her great-grandfather's approach to pearl sourcing, which involved patience, personal engagement, and deep understanding of the diving process. Jacques Cartier's experience witnessing the rarity and difficulty of finding quality pearls in the Persian Gulf profoundly shaped his appreciation for these gems as the most valuable in the world at that time.
