About Cultured Tahitian PearlsCultured Tahitian Pearls are prized for their deep luster and iridescent skin. They have been a highly regarded gem for many centuries and will surely remain a classic for years to come. Traditionally referenced as "black" in color, the color of cultured Tahitian pearls can range from a rich graphite to a sleek metallic silver. The natural black color comes from the black-lipped variety of the Pinctada Maxima oyster which can reach a foot or more in diameter, producing very large pearls. Because this type of oyster is very sensitive to the pearl culturing process, cultured Tahitian pearls are expensive to produce and make an extraordinary gift.
