The Tahitian Pearl: A Reflection of Polynesia’s Natural Beauty

Created in the crystalline waters of French Polynesia, Tahitian Pearls are so imbued with a sense of place their very form transports you there. Their lustrous surface reflects the shimmer of distant lagoons while a pearl’s sublime curves suggest mythic sensuality and passion. The South Seas also impart to them a variety of hues and shapes seemingly dreamed from an artist’s palette. Yet they are as real as the hand that holds them. And as anyone who has worn one will tell you, they enchant and captivate all who behold them.

Discover the Shape of Perfection

Tahitian Pearls are known the world over for their unique shapes. While round pearls have long been popular, six additional shapes are now available to capture the imaginations of designers and customers alike. Semi-round, oval or button, ringed, semi-Baroque and Baroque shapes are all expressions of the pearl’s natural beauty that inspire designers to create ever more magnificent jewelry.
