Tahitian Pearl 18kt Yellow Gold Victory Pendant

The Tahitian Pearl 18kt Yellow Gold Victory Pendant features a V shaped solid gold bail to accentuate the natural beauty of the hand selected peacock Tahitian pearl. The Tahitian cultured pearl measures 9-10 mm. Born in the vivid tropical blue lagoons of the islands of French Polynesia, Tahitian Pearls are created by the local black lipped oyster and are not dyed or treated. Each pearl has a unique duochrome peacock color whose beauty only nature could imagine.  The culturing process to create a Tahitian pearl involves an expert grafter and takes over 3 years. Regulations in French Polynesia permit only the use of grades A, B, C and D, with no further sub-classifications. The pearls used are all A quality, round, large and with a very high luster, qualities which are present in less than 5% of Tahitian pearls produced in French Polynesia.  While all the pearls feature a duochrome peacock luster, each has its own personality and may have dominant tones of green, blue, bronze or eggpl
