They come in colors like white, cream, rose, and silver, and are often admired for their brilliant shine, making them more expensive than other types of pearls.

South Sea pearls are among the largest and most luxurious pearls available. Cultivated in Australia, Indonesia, and the Philippines, these pearls are produced by the Pinctada Maxima oyster, the largest pearl-producing oyster.

South Sea pearls are renowned for their soft, satin-like luster and come in a variety of colors including white, silver, and gold. The golden South Sea pearls, in particular, are highly sought after for their rarity and luxurious appearance.

Freshwater Pearls

Freshwater pearls are widely available and known for their versatility. Produced in freshwater mussels, these pearls are primarily cultivated in China. Freshwater pearls come in a range of shapes and sizes, including oval, button, and irregular forms, and are available in colors such as white, pink, peach, and lavender.

While not perfectly round like Akoya pearls, freshwater pearls have a soft, attractive shine and are an excellent choice for unique and affordable jewellery.
