About Tahitian pearls…
Tahitian pearls have been produced
in steadily increasing numbers since the early 1960s. These beautiful pearls are
grown in black-lipped oysters that are smaller than the white- or yellow-lipped
oysters used elsewhere. The color of these unique pearls can range from
pewter-gray to jet-black, unlike the white and cream-colored pearls from
Australia, Indonesia and the Philippines. French Polynesia also produces pearls
in a wide color spectrum ranging from deep eggplant purple and peacock green to
soft pistachio, yellow-greens and henna-hued reddish-browns. Today's jewelry
designers have embraced these new colors, forging a new perception of pearls
that goes beyond basic white.
