Pearl

We use a variety of different pearls, including Tahitian, South Sea , Keshi, and freshwater pearls

TAHITIAN PEARLS, also known as black South Sea pearls, have incredible exotic colors from deep black to peacock blue, green, silver and eggplant. These pearls are produced in Tahiti and several French Polynesian islands.

WHITE and GOLDEN SOUTH SEA PEARLS are cherished for their classic golden color as well as their size, White pearls are commonly found off Australia and golden are usually found in the Philippines.

KESHI pearls are small  non-nucleated pearls typically formed as by-products of pearl cultivation. They are 100% solid nacre and come in all shapes and sizes. They are highly prized because of their remarkable luster, and since they are such a purely precious material, they are sold by weight like a gemstone. We love working with keshi pearls because of the amazing colors, shapes and sizes they offer.

FRESHWATER pearls are the most commonly produced, but their unique shapes and colors are always beautiful. They are prized for having very rounded shapes, and they are a slightly more affordable pearl.

All of the pearls we use are AAA grade and we buy only from a certified pearl dealer.

We also use carved MOTHER OF PEARL shells, ABALONE shells and carved CONCH and coral in some of our designs. These we also buy from our pearl dealer.
