The pearl is the only gem that emerges from nature perfect and complete. Unlike diamonds and gemstones, it cannot be improved through cutting and polishing. It is nature's perfection in a luminous droplet.

The pristine environment of the South Seas is the natural home of the world's largest oyster, Pinctada Maxima, mother of the giant South Sea pearl. The pinctada maxima is rarely found in nature, and its pearl is rarer still. The most successful way to harvest them is through careful cultivation at remote and unpolluted pearl farms.
