South Sea pearls, actually South Sea cultured pearls, are a rather recent phenomenon in the history of pearl culture. For a long time, only Akoya pearls cultured in Japan were available in a quality that could hold their own with natural pearls. It was not until the late 1970's that pearls from various countries south of Japan entered the world market. Japanese experts had successfully applied the knowledge of domestic pearl cultivation to the pearl oyster species "Pinctada Maxima", which had not been used in Japan until then and which can produce particularly large pearls: The "South Sea pearl" was born. The silver-lipped oyster "Pinctada maxima" only grows in the crystal-clear waters of the tropically warm lagoons of the South Seas. Unlike freshwater pearls, which are cultivated in former rice fields in China, only a few pearls can grow at a time in South Sea oysters, and it takes years for a pearl to mature inside the oyster. Accordingly, genuine South Sea pearls are rare and precious. This pair of fine stud earrings presents two of these cultured pearls from the South Seas. Their base color is a silvery white with a wonderful melting luster and they show only a few growth characteristics. The pearls were set in warm yellow gold on our behalf in a small manufactory in Munich. We have taken special care to put only very well matched pearls together in pairs.
