How Do Cultured Whole Pearls Differ?

Akoya Cultured Pearls are the most familiar type of saltwater cultured pearl to most US and Western markets. Many customers think of white or cream-colored akoyas as the classic pearl used for jewelry, especially single-strand necklaces. Japan and China both produce Akoya cultured pearls.

South Sea Cultured Pearls are saltwater cultured pearls sourced primarily from Australia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. South Sea cultured pearls can be white to silver or golden, depending on the type of oyster. Due to a long growth period, their large size and thick nacre, plus their limited critical growing conditions, are all factors contributing to their value.

Tahitian Cultured Pearls are cultivated primarily around the islands of French Polynesia. The most familiar of these is Tahiti. These saltwater cultured pearls, sometimes referred to as black pearls, have a wide color range. They might be gray, black, or brown, and they can have blue, green, purple, or pink overtones.
