Tahitian Pearl Jewelry

Jewelry Made with Tahitian Pearls

By , About.com Guide

Like nearly all pearls found in modern jewelry, Tahitian pearls are cultured -- grown intentionally by humans. They are called black, but their color varies from a silvery metallic to dark graphite, and they can have tones of other colors, like purple and blue. Tahitian pearls grow large, so they make stunning jewelry set alone, but an occasional diamond works perfectly with them.
