Assael, the 75-year-old fine jewelry brand and foremost purveyor of magnificent pearls and responsibly sourced coral in North America, announced today the debut of an all-new documentary-style short film entitled Assael Revealed – The Legendary Legacy of Pearl Pioneer Salvador J. Assael. Produced by three-time Emmy Award winner Dean Love and his production company Dean Love Films, the mini-doc explores the enduring and historic legacy of the late Salvador Assael hailed as “a titan of the cultured pearl business” by the New York Times.
“My late husband was a legend in the pearl world,” says Christina Lang Assael, President and CEO of Assael. “He was the first to bring South Sea Pearls to North America, and he literally started the global Tahitian Pearl industry. This long-overdue film tells the true story of him as a swashbuckling adventurer with incredible business savvy and an absolute genius for marketing. I am honoured to now share his legacy with fellow pearl connoisseurs.”
