Collection: Gold pearls
Gold pearls, also known as South Sea or Australian golden pearls, are highly prized for their rich warm color that ranges from light yellow to deep gold. These pearls are produced by certain species of large saltwater oysters, primarily Pinctada maxima, found in the Indo-Pacific region. Gold pearls are characterized by their thick layers of nacre, which give them a luster and depth that is particularly admired in the world of jewelry. They are typically larger than other types of saltwater pearls, with sizes ranging from about 9mm to 20mm in diameter. The combination of their size, color, and quality makes gold pearls one of the most valuable and sought-after varieties in the pearl market.
