Closeout Pack of 2-Tahitian Semi-Baroque 8-12mm Pearls

Sold by the pair

These 8-12mm farmed semi-baroque undrilled Tahitian pearls are B grade with good luster. Imperfections can be seen on 30% of the surface.

The semi baroque pearl exhibits one axis of rotation but presents a circled on top and/or bottom third of its surface.

The pairs may not match as each semi-baroque pearl is different.

Misnamed Black Pearls, Tahitian cultured pearls can be found in a variety of shapes and colors, only nature can dictate. Grown in remote islands and atolls of French Polynesia, the Pinctada margaritifera oyster or mother of pearl will grow almost 2 years before reaching maturity and being nucleated. Another wait of 18 to 24 months is necessary before the Pinctada gives birth to this unique ocean gem.

Tahitian pearls perfectly fit in today’s market where consumers are looking for natural, organic, untouched products of fair trade origin.

Two major grading systems are in fairly widespread use: The one we use is the A-D Tahitian system, the other is the AAA system by (GIA).
