Tahitian Pearls come from the warm waters of French Polynesia and are grown in the Black-Lipped variety of the Pinctada Maxima oyster.  The Black-Lipped oyster can reach a foot or more in diameter and typically produces very large pearls which are the only pearls to achieve a “black” body color naturally. Although traditionally dark in color, these prized treasures of Tahiti come in a wide range of hues including black, gray, silver, green, blue and purple.
