Tahitian cultured pearls are among the most sought after of all gems yet due to their relatively new introduction to the market, they remain an enigma to US retailers. Their coloring is often thought of solely as dark gray or green because the astonishing array of natural fancy colored Tahitians are only seen in stores that carry extensive stock of Tahitian pearls. I often spend a great deal of time educating retailers on the various colors and overtones that are available.
Unfortunately there is no standard system for describing color, but I have put together a color chart to highlight some of the vivid colors available in Tahitian cultured pearls.
