Description
Among pearl aficionados, white South Sea cultured pearls is prized by collectors for their larger sizes. White south sea pearls are nature's gift from the Pinctada Maxima oyster whose natural habitat is either Indonesia or Australia. Because of their long 2 to 3 year cultivation period, south sea pearls develop an exceptionally thick coating of nacre, from 2 to 6 millimeters, perhaps the thickest of all saltwater cultured pearl varieties. All the pearls are "A quality˜ the highest grade of the A, B, C and D nomenclature assigned to grade these pearls. All necklaces are affixed with American Pearl's signature Figure 8 Clasp.
