Frequently asked questions
How thick is the nacre on South Sea pearls?
AAA South Sea pearls have nacre thickness of 2-6mm — by far the thickest of any cultured pearl (Tahitian 0.8-2.5mm, Akoya 0.4-0.8mm). This is why South Sea pearls have such depth of luster and why they last generations.
Are South Sea pearls a good investment?
Among gemstones, AAA-grade matched South Sea pearl strands have appreciated steadily — particularly larger sizes (13mm+) and rare overtones (deep gold, silver-blue). Tap into our wholesale program for matched-strand commissions; resale market for documented matched lots is active.
Are these pearls drilled or undrilled?
Both available. Drilled pearls have a 0.8mm hole standard; we can drill to 1.0mm or 1.2mm for thicker silk or beading wire. Undrilled pearls let you (or your jeweler) decide drill placement.
Why is 11-12mm a popular size in South Sea looses?
11-12mm sits in the most-requested band for South Sea looses — large enough to read as a statement, small enough that the price stays accessible. Each piece is graded to ensure consistency at this size.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. We ship worldwide with insured tracked delivery. Free shipping on orders over $150 USD. Each piece arrives with certificate of authenticity.
