Tahitian Pearls – Among The
Most Beautiful In The World
Tahitian pearls are produced in the black-lipped oyster ‘Pinctada
margaritifera’, in and around Tahiti and the French Polynesian
islands. This oyster itself is quite large - sometimes over 12
inches across and weighing as much as 10 pounds - which often
results in much larger-than-average pearls. The pearls are unique
because of their natural dark colors. Most "black" Tahitian pearls
are not actually black, but are instead silver, charcoal, or a
multitude of colors with the dominant color being green. Truly black
pearls are among the most beautiful pearls in the world, and are
extremely rare.
Almost Hunted To Extinction
Not only are the pearls beautiful, but the black-lipped oyster's
mother-of-pearl inner shell is also extremely attractive. By the
early part of the 20th century, before conservation and repopulation
efforts began, the Tahitian pearl oyster had almost been hunted to
extinction for its shell alone.
Tahitian Pearls – Not From Tahiti
Although Tahitian pearls are thought by many to be solely a product
of Tahiti, this is in fact not true. Tahiti is the commercial center
and trading hub for the bulk of the industry, however Tahiti does
not have any pearl farms actually located on the island. The farms
are instead scattered throughout French Polynesia, as far east as
the Gambier Islands, and beyond French Polynesia to the west into
the Micronesian Islands. Australia, the Seychelles and Vietnam have
all produced black pearls as well, but those cannot be referred to
as Tahitian pearls.
Tahitian Pearl Farming Begins
Tahitian pearl farming has much later commercial origins than its
other cultured pearl cousins. In the early 1960's a man by the name
of Jean-Marie Domard began experimenting with the ‘Pinctada
margaritifera’ using Japanese culturing techniques. In 1962, Mr.
Domard successfully nucleated 5,000 oysters, and after 3 years
harvested more than 1000 high-quality Tahitian pearls. ~By Jeremy
