South Sea Pearls versus Tahitian Black Pearls
In the world of pearls just two major varieties make all the headlines – the South Sea and Tahitian black pearls. South Sea pearls are generally available in natural silvery or golden shades. Also known as Australian pearls, golden pearls, or Pacific pearls, South Sea pearls have a fine, unique and dazzling beauty, and are available in several shapes such as round, baroque, semi round, and semi baroque. They are produced in the Pinctada Maxima oyster. These pearls are the perfect symbol of sophistication and this is why a South Sea pearl necklace is one of most sought after jewellery pieces amongst elite and well-to-do ladies.
The perfect round South Sea pearls are rare and consequently expensive. They also vary in size, normally between ten to eighteen millimetres; the bigger the pearl is, the more expensive it will cost. In buying a South Sea pearl necklace people may want to consider the pearls’ lustre. This factor is what gives a pearl necklace its opulence. A great lustre is demonstrated by how much and the clarity with which the pearls can reflect light. Any pearls that look dull are forthrightly not considered jewellery material and their cash value is quite low. The buyer also wants a pearl with its surface virtually flawless as this is the essence of fine jewellery.
From their name, Tahitian black pearls are generally black in appearance – an elegant colour that takes out the light shade norm of South Sea pearls. Nonetheless, when they are placed in the light the black colour displays shades of green, blue, purple, aubergine, pinkish, and greenish blue, which serves to add more elegance. Tahitian pearls are cultivated in the oyster variety known as the Pinctada Margaritefera, or by another name, the black lipped oyster. These pearls are also available in the round and baroque shapes and hence the major difference between a South Sea pearl necklace and that made from Tahitian black pearls really has to be the colours. This is rightly so because the similar factors of lustre, size, flawlessness, and shape, apply to both types of pearls although Tahitian black pearls are somewhat thicker because they are produced with several more layers than other forms of pearls.
Anyone looking to buy a Tahitian black pearl or South Sea pearl necklace should consider the design and setting of the pearls on the necklace. Several varieties of pearl necklaces are available in the market with styles ranging from the choker, bib, rope, princess, opera, dog collar, and matinee among others. Whether you are a fan of the black opulence of Tahitian black pearls or the elegant golden or silvery look of South Sea pearls, you can be certain that these respective necklaces will bring out utmost sophistication and style in any lady.
