The pearl being an organic material, each of them is unique and can present some differences with the photo. Tahitian cultured pearls are grown in the seas of this small archipelago and produced by large oysters called Pinctada Margaritifera. The black lips of this mollusk are, in part, responsible for the color so characteristic of Tahitian pearls. The shades are varied: eggplant, intense green, blue, golden, silver and sometimes even "peacock feather". Tahitian pearls are particularly appreciated because of the color of their mother-of-pearl, which gives a more modern look to the jewelry.
