South Sea Pearl Jewelry

What differentiates South Sea pearls from other types of pearls is their large size. A genuine South Sea pearl will range from 8 mm to 12 mm in diameter. They will also be highly reflective under a light. If your pearl is the right size and luster, try the texture test. When a genuine south sea pearl is rubbed against another pearl or your tooth, it should feel a little rough. If the pearl feels totally smooth, it is not genuine. Always buy your South Sea pearl jewelry from a trusted retailer,like Blue Nile, for peace of mind.

Due to the way they are cultivated, South Sea pearls are rarer and more valuable than other types of pearls. They have a long and delicate growing process, which makes them hard to cultivate outside of the warm seas of Australia, Indonesia and the Philippines. South Sea pearls grow larger than other types of pearls and are found in shades of silvery-white and gold, with a range unique shapes.
