Tahiti pearl blue is flawed. Is it too bright and valuable?
1. With the same gloss defect, Tahiti pearls are the cheapest, top peacock green is the highest, and all other colors are in between; The color of black pearls affects the price gap very, very big. The price gap between black ash with the same size and quality and top malachite green can reach five or six times.
Second, the color of peacock green is stepped, and the price depends on the green degree. The greener, the more expensive; Glossy refers to the intensity of reflected light on the pearl surface and the clarity of the image formed. The stronger the luster, the higher the value. Relatively speaking, the green luster of top malachite is mostly good, and the black and gray luster is mostly average, which is also the reason for the large price gap.
Third, for example, the black pearl of 12- 13mm is of perfect quality (almost flawless), the market price of black ash is around 700- 1000 (the luster is generally cheaper), and the top grade peacock green can reach 5000-6000, which is generally a little green.
4. Tahiti Black Pearl is a specialty of French Polynesia Salt Lake in the South Pacific. It is precious and unusual, and enjoys the reputation of "the queen's pearl" and "the queen among pearls". It is very difficult to cultivate black pearls in Tahiti. The process of cultivating pearl oyster is very long and easy to die. Coupled with the influence of weather and water quality, finished products are very scarce. There are five standards for the quality grade of Tahiti black pearl, namely, volume, shape, color, skin gloss and purity.
