Tahitian Pearls

Tahitian black pearls are some of the rarest, most valuable pearls available and have the distinction of being the world's only naturally black pearl. They come in a wide range of natural colors including black, aubergine, eggplant, peacock, silver, purple, pistachio, and more. (We also carry chocolate Tahitian pearls, including Chocolate pearl earrings and chocolate pearl necklaces. Chocolate colored Tahitian pearls are enhanced to achieve this special color.)

Tahitian pearls range in size from 9mm to 16mm making them some of the largest pearls available. Black Tahitian pearls are harvested in French Polynesia from the Pinctada Margaratifera oyster. This is one of the largest pearl-producing oysters in the world, only exceeded by the South Sea pearl-producing Pictada Maxima.
