Here’s an unusual Olympics souvenir!

A pair of shells grown with the Beijing Olympics emblem made appearance at the 6th China (International) Pearl Festival held in east China’s Zhejiang Province.

The shells are gifts produced by Zhejiang-based company Grace Pearl, a Beijing Olympics sponsor, China News Service reported.

Since the company received the authorization to produce the Olympic licensed products two years ago, Grace Pearl began to cultivate freshwater mussels with molds in the shape of the Beijing Olympics emblem. Finally, they selected about 10,000 shells from among 200,000 pieces as souvenirs for the Olympics.
