Where can I find Tahitian pearls?

French Polynesia is the greatest place to shop for Tahitian pearls. While Tahiti is the largest island in French Polynesia, remember it is not the primary source of Tahiti pearls. Genuine Tahitian cultured black pearls are harvested in the warm waters of the Tuamotu and Gambier Islands, two of French Polynesia's five archipelagos. 

They are usually seen in Tahiti, Bora Bora, and Moorea, as well as on family-owned pearl farms on Manihi, Ahe, Taha'a, Rikitea and across the Tuamotu Atolls. Mother Nature's purest gems, the iconic black Tahitian pearl, are manufactured beneath the pristine waters surrounding French Polynesia.

Tahitian pearls are unique in that they are produced by a black lip pearl oyster. Tahitian pearls have a dark body hue by nature. The term "black" refers to the pearl's body color and may not always signify genuine black due to the presence of overtones. Tahitian pearls with dark green bodies and peacock overtones are the most popular. A genuine Tahitian pearl is the only pearl that is naturally "black." Other types of black pearls, such as Akoya or freshwater pearls, are dyed or irradiated.

Due to the temperature, density, salinity, light, and pristine climate of many of the islands and atolls in French Polynesia, the warm lagoons are among the most ideal habitats for black Tahitian pearls. Tahitian pearls vary significantly in price, size, shape, and color. From the deepest black to glistening hues of green, blue, bronze, aubergine, and even pink.
