Tahitian pearls have become some of the most sought-after pearls in the world, and are renown for their unparalleled beauty and variety of colors, ranging from silvery white to midnight black with mesmerizing overtones of peacock, aubergine, and pistachio. Because of their vast color range, matching these pearls into a finished strand is an enormous task requiring thousands of loose pearls to create a single strand.
Frequently Asked Questions
about Tahitian Pearls
1. Where do your Tahitian pearls come from?
Our Tahitian pearls are grown in French Polynesia’s warm lagoon waters and hand‑selected for their top values such as luster, surface quality, and color.
2. Are these pearls treated or dyed?
No — these pearls are naturally colored by the black‑lipped oyster (Pinctada margaritifera). Their overtone shades —from pale silver to gunmetal to olive to peacock green — are completely natural.
3. How do I care for Tahitian pearl jewelry?
Simply wipe pearls with a soft cloth after wearing and avoid their direct contact with perfume or chemicals. Store them in a soft pouch away from other jewelry that might scratch the surface of pearls.
