South Sea Pearls
South Sea Pearls are large, lustrous pearls produced by the Pinctada maxima oyster, primarily found in the warm waters of the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean. These pearls are known for their impressive size, often ranging from 10 to 20 millimeters, and their beautiful colors, which can include white, silver, and gold.
The cultivation of South Sea Pearls involves a careful process of oyster farming, where a small bead is inserted into the oyster to stimulate pearl formation. Due to their rarity and the extensive time required for growth, South Sea Pearls are considered some of the most valuable and sought-after pearls in the world.
