A breathtaking geological masterpiece has officially claimed the title of the World’s Largest Luminous Pearl, astonishing audiences worldwide with its sheer size and mesmerizing glow. Weighing an extraordinary 10.08 metric tons and measuring 1.81 meters in diameter, this colossal gemstone—known in China as the Night Luminous Pearl (Yemengzhu).
Owned and displayed by Jiangxi Dajue Mountain Scenic Spot Group Co., Ltd., this luminous marvel surpasses all previous records, marking a monumental leap in scale and beauty. Unlike ordinary decorative gems, the pearl is made primarily of fluorite, a mineral celebrated for its natural ability to exhibit phosphorescence—emitting a soft, enchanting blue-green glow after absorbing light. When illuminated, it transforms into a glowing orb reminiscent of mythical wish-fulfilling jewels often described in ancient Chinese legends.
Crafting this gemstone into its flawless spherical shape was a feat of patience, precision, and craftsmanship. The detailed grinding and polishing process took immense time and effort, highlighting not just geological rarity but also human dedication and skill.
For centuries, Yemengzhu pearls have held a special place in Chinese culture as symbols of wisdom, mystique, and prosperity. Today, this monumental fluorite sphere stands as a global icon of natural wonder, cultural heritage, and scientific fascination.
Visitors and gemstone enthusiasts alike now flock to witness this record-breaking luminous pearl—a radiant testament to Earth’s hidden treasures and the enduring allure of China’s legendary stones.
