WHITE GOLD: Gold is a precious metal which is naturally quite soft. To give it a white color and increase its strength, gold is alloyed with white metals, such as silver and/or palladium, and often plated with rhodium. The purity of the metal is indicated by a unit called a "karat," with 24kt having the highest percentage of natural gold.

TAHITIAN PEARL: Saltwater pearls found off the islands of French Polynesia, treasured for their rarity, large size, and mysterious color. Tahitian pearls are grown in black-lipped oysters and range from metallic silver to graphite-colored with overtones of blue, purple, and green.
