50PC Akoya Oysters with Pearls Inside Wholesale Round Pearl Saltwater Akoya Oysters Bulk for Christmas Party

Ordered 2 packages of 50 each for Christmas. My 13 year old loved opening them, and we all loved seeing what was coming out. They were pretty easy to open, which was good for our kids. Definitely not Epcot quality, but still fun. Do outside if you can, or at least crack a window and have a fan going, as they do smell strongly of formaldehyde. Out of the 100 we received, 1 didn’t have a pearl. In both bags, 13/50 oysters had a dark pearl in them. Will order again for sure!

Im really sad at how bad the quality of these are. I've only opened 6 so far but all of the oysters shells are literally crumbling and the pearls are just bad. I hope this is a batch issue but if it isn't and this is the norm, I wouldn't recommend the product.

Everybody got involved, kids and adults. No weirdness or smells. Easy to open. I had a good range or colors and some really good sized ones. I used during Christmas and was a very good alternative for the usual crackers. I looked for more things like this as little surprises to open at gatherings but could not find anything like this. One of a kind from what I've saw.

These pearls aren't grown in the shell. They are placed in the oyster! All shells are opened. I'm so disappointed in these AKOYAS. They are tiny and look just like the freshwater party pearls.

Beautiful pearls!! Alittle stinky and hard to open! But overall great product!

First thing I noticed was the smell. When the package arrived it had a formaldehyde odor to it. It may have been just the smell of the oysters but it was very very bad. When I opened the package there was a Ziploc bag with the oysters individually wrapped inside. Even through all that we could smell how bad they were. We found many with mold on them and they were all very hard. Next, we placed the oysters in salt water for over an hour. This helped with the odor and did help soften them up a bit. I recommend this as an outdoor activity. We did get a pearl in every oyster but as someone else stated; they were placed in the oyster. The pearls are pretty but, we also noticed the "pearl" coating is flaking off some and some have very light patches of color. Almost all have white spots of no color. Pros: Pearl in every oyster Fast shipping received two weeks before expected. Cons: Odor Hard to open Mold

I have always wanted to open an oyster and find a pearl and when I saw this item I became very excited. Had to order it and have not regretted it. Have only opened about half of them but has several of each of the colors and I've made one necklace so far and plan on making other jewelry and gifts for people. These are absolutely stunning and I am very pleased with this purchase. Thought it would have a very fishy smell when I opened the first packet but it absolutely did not have a strong odor. Very small odor but very tolerable. Thanks again for this great item.

Terrible! Disfigured-discolored-some not even as described(different kind of pearl). Never buy!

Would never recommend ever buying this product or dealing with this company as I LEFT SEVERAL MESSAGES AND NEVER RECEIVED ANY CONTACT FROM THIS COMPANY ,NOT HAPPY WITH PRODUCT !!!

Was missing one pearl. Overall they were decent quality and pretty.
