A TRUE FAVOURITE!
Beautiful and understated![]()
The South Sea pearl is truly the queen of the ocean. They have adorned royalty and have been alluring people for centuries with their satin-like glow.
Cultured South Sea pearls are also grown through a bead nucleation process. The growth period for a South Sea pearl is upwards of four to six years; twice that of the Akoya pearl. South Sea pearls are grown by the Pinctada Maxima oyster, which have a very limited growing area being cultured only in Australia and Indonesia.
South Sea cultured pearls of the White-Lipped variety naturally occur in different intensities of white and naturally have overtones of pink, green, and silver in varying degrees and combination.
South Sea cultured pearls of the Gold-Lipped variety naturally occur in different intensities of ivory, champagne and gold, and naturally have overtones of pink, green, and silver in varying degrees and combination.
Overtone is a subtle play of colour that can be seen playing across the surface of a pearl.
