Multi-color black Tahitian pearls add glamour and allure to any outfit. This luxurious 17-inch strand showcases 9-10mm Tahitian cultured pearls, individually knotted on matching silk cord. The pearls have a very high luster and are well-matched for shape and size. A fancy diamond-cut ball clasp, in radiant 14 karat yellow gold, finishes this beautiful necklace. Pair it with a formal cocktail dress, a crisp collared shirt, or business attire; its versatility will delight you. The silvery iridescent colors blend beautifully with both gold and silver jewelry metals.

Tahitian pearls are found in colors that range from nearly black to pale silvery-gray and display a rich metallic sheen that can reveal deep shades of green, blue, and eggplant. This remarkable pearl derives its unique color from its cultivation inside the black-lipped variety of the Pinctata maxima oyster. These large oysters–up to a foot in diameter–are farmed on the volcanic atolls of Tahiti, where warm, nutrient-rich ocean waters create ideal environmental conditions for their growth. The oysters are pampered in the warm lagoons, and the pearls are kept inside them for long periods of time, allowing them to grow to their impressive size and develop multiple layers of lustrous nacre for a radiant glow. Because of their sensitivity to the cultivation process, few of these oysters survive to produce pearls, which explains why Tahitian pearls are so rare and valuable.
