Luxury fashion items explained: Tahitian pearls
If you class yourself as a discerning fashionista then chances are that you will need no introduction to Tahitian pearls. Those of you less familiar with jewellery in particular may be interested to find out that they are one of the most treasured fashion accessories in the world.
Tahitian pearls come from Tahiti (obviously!). If geography is not your strong point then you should know that Tahiti is an island located in the southern Pacific Ocean. It is the largest of the seven islands in French Polynesia and is part of the archipelago (cluster of islands) that makes up the Society Islands. Tahiti was colonised by France in 1880 but the population still consists mainly of indigenous people. As well as tourism and certain commodities such as vanilla and fruits, Tahitian pearls are a substantial source of revenue for the island, which is also the administrative centre and most heavily populated part of French Polynesia.
Tahitian pearls are a major export and are often cited as the most desirable pearls in the world. They are widely sought after due to their exquisite natural properties; they have an exceptional lustre, thick nacre and a round shape. Consequently it is not uncommon for jewellery containing authentic Tahitian pearls to retail for several thousands of pounds.
Items of jewellery which include Tahitian pearls range from the traditional favourite that is the pearl necklace to things like earrings and bracelets. Consequently there is no shortage of options whether you are looking for a luxury gift or are a connoisseur of the likes of Tahitian pearls.
