Pearls are organic, created within the soft tissue of mollusks. They’re found in oceans, seas, and freshwater lakes around the world—major sources include Japan, China and the South Pacific.

Pearls come in a variety of types, including classic white Akoya, golden South Sea, Grey and Black Tahitians, and freshwater pearls, which range in color and shape. Their natural luster and elegance have made them prized for centuries.
