South Sea pearls themselves are a wonder to behold. Among the most coveted in the world, there's a reason for their rarity. These beautiful pearls are cultivated in the giant Pinctada Maxima oyster, the largest of its kind. Wild and free in the waters of Southeast Asia and Australia, these oysters take their time crafting these precious gems. The longer a pearl takes to grow, the larger and more valuable it becomes as showcased in this fine TRUE AAA Quality Necklace. Like other cultured pearls, South Sea pearls are a true gift from nature, limited by wild production and uncontrollable forces. This limited availability has earned them the nickname "Rolls Royce" of cultured pearls. The process begins with a mother of pearl bead carefully inserted into the oyster, which then patiently coats it with nacre, layer by layer, until a breathtaking pearl is born.

John Steinbeck, a master storyteller, captures the simple awe and magnificence of a pearl in his novella, The Pearl. Imagine this: Kino, the protagonist, pries open an oyster and discovers a treasure within. Steinbeck describes it as "perfect as the moon," a luminous wonder that "captured the light and refined it and gave it back in silver incandescence." As big as a seagull's egg, it's no ordinary south sea pearl – it's the "greatest pearl in the world."
